International Internships
An international internship can help you gain experience related to your degree, while allowing you to immerse yourself in a different culture and gain a global perspective.
Students can start investigating international opportunities by going to the Western International site. Information on scholarships and funding for international learning experiences can be found here.
IMPORTANT: Students should plan international experiences as early as possible in their undergraduate studies and contact Western International at least a year in advance of a desired departure date to discuss options.
Deadlines to apply for international learning opportunities can be set up to a year ahead of the departure date and vary by organization. Do your research well ahead of time!
For a full list of internship programs, go to Atlas and search with the keyword “internship.”
Note: There are application fees associated with these opportunities. However, students undertaking in-person international opportunities can apply for scholarships and awards, which help to offset fees and expenses.
