FIELDWORK & Internships

An internship or fieldwork placement is not guaranteed, even if you have registered for one. An Internship/Fieldwork Request form is required. This questionnaire can be found in your Global Gateway Account. The deadline to submit this form is December 1 (Spring Semester), April 1 (Summer Semester) and May 1 (Fall semester).

After having completed the Internship/Fieldwork questionnaire, you will have a Zoom interview with CGEE’s internship coordinator in Mexico.

At least one semester of Spanish is required, but the better your Spanish skills, the wider range of options is available to you for placements.

Social Work students who need to complete fieldwork during this semester but who have completed less than one year of Spanish are strongly encouraged to take a pre-session Spanish course (see Academic Information).
