Intern Abroad This Summer in the Purdue London Internship Program |
|
|
The London Internship Program combines a three-credit unpaid internship with a three-credit academic course over a seven-week period. The London Internship Program is designed to allow students to study and work in an international setting while developing an appreciation for British culture. Interns will live in London, one of the world's most cosmopolitan and international cities, and commute to work by 'tube.' London is filled with museums, art galleries, and major tourist attractions, including Big Ben, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Trafalgar Square and Piccadilly Circus, that can be explored leisurely on weekends. Students will be able to take advantage of London's theater productions and musical performances, visit designer stores and chic restaurants, stroll in Hyde Park, take 'high tea,' and explore the many ethnic neighborhoods which make up this historic and diverse metropolis.
To sign up to attend a virtual call out on Friday, January 14, and for more information Click Here. |
