Student Work Abroad Programs and Paid Summer Internships

Student internship and paid work abroad.

To legally work in foreign countries and earn income, U.S. citizens typically require work permits. The programs below, including student work abroad opportunities, internships, and work exchanges, can assist you in obtaining these permits. Many of these programs are available during the summer, offering students a chance to gain valuable international experience as they transition into their careers. Some internships offer a stipend after a small fee is paid to the placement agency, although not all of them provide compensation, as the overseas work experience itself can significantly enhance your international and lifelong personal resume.
