Interviews with London Internship Program Students
Listen to first hand accounts of what it is like to participate in the London Internship Program.
On the London Internship Summer Program, you’ll engage with London as both a professional and a student. You'll intern three full days per week over the summer, with coursework designed to complement your work experience and to reinforce your professional and academic interests. There are placements available in wide range of industries. This is a unique and affordable study abroad opportunity—if you want to network this summer, this may be a great program option.
Placement options include: Advertising; arts; business operations; film & television; accounting and entrepreneurship; hospitality; journalism; law; politics (including parliament); marketing; non-governmental organizations; psychology; public relations; and theater. The Internship Placement Guide outlines more placement details. Placements are arranged based on your interests, experience and goals.
As part of your Cornerstone Course, Work in Thought and Action, you’ll form a set of goals to work toward while in your placement. At the conclusion of the semester, you are to give a Final Reflection and Presentation, which allows you to make discoveries about yourself through your placement experience. You will also complete a Digital Resume Portfolio, which will give you exposure to the online world of job searching through creation of an online resume, social media profile and cover letter for a job application.
If you’re interested in British or international politics and public policy, the Parliamentary Internship may be a good option. As a Parliamentary Intern, you will contribute to the everyday operations of important figures in British politics and develop an insider’s understanding of how the British legislature – the House of Commons and the House of Lords – make policy ideas into law.
In addition to your placement and the Cornerstone Course, you will enroll in one additional elective.
