China Internship Program

The Study Asia Internship Program gives students and recent college graduates entry into Asia's leading organizations and ensures that they will receive training compatible with their employment and/or educational history. Internships are generally unpaid and are 36-40 hours per week for full-time placements and 10-20 hours per week for part-time placements. These internships are an invaluable learning experience for students of all academic disciplines and are project-based, meaning students will work on a specific project for the duration of the internship.

Students participating in either the Shanghai or Beijing semester programs have the option to undertake a part-time internship in conjunction with their academic studies. Students will be placed in an internship that matches their academic or personal interest needs as closely as possible. No matter the assigned internship, students consider the opportunity to immerse oneself into daily Chinese working life a highlight of the program.

Locations
Most internship placements are located in urban centers such as Beijing and Shanghai.

Eligibility
Prospective interns are expected to have relevant coursework or employment experience in their area of interest since these internships do not involve routine office duties. Generally speaking, Interns will be notified of their specific project and company/organization assignment before they commit to the program and depart for China.

Students will receive an evaluation report from the Chinese host organization upon completion of their internship abroad program.

Duration
Internships are available during the Spring (February - June) and Fall (September - December) semesters, as well as Summer (Early June - End of July).
