This summer, take advantage of growing virtual connections to gain real-world, professional experience. UMD’s new Virtual Global Internship Program empowers you to collaborate with colleagues across cultures, life experiences and time zones, adding global skills to your resume and earning academic credit from wherever you are.
An Internship Placement to Match your Goals
Whether you are…
Managing social media for a dance company in London that supports people with disabilities
Creating original designs for an Italian company’s global marketing campaign
Or collaborating with a Sydney-based company on diversity workshops to educate students
...this virtual internship will teach you to excel in a global environment with international colleagues.
You will work with UMD’s partner, CAPA, to land an internship placement that directly connects to your interests and career goals with high-profile organizations and businesses in Barcelona, Dublin, Florence, London, and Sydney. Check out sample placements here.
Earning Credit
