Semester Part-Time Internships 

• How It Works: Available on standard semester programs across most approved providers. You take 3–4 traditional academic courses alongside a part-time internship placement (typically 10–15 hours per week).

• Academic Integration: The internship is paired with an accompanying academic seminar or internship course where you earn credit, complete reflections, and process cross-cultural workplace dynamics.

Summer Full-Time Internships

• How It Works: Dedicated, immersive placements (30–40 hours per week) focused entirely on professional development over 6 to 10 weeks during the summer.

• Simmons Funded Pathway Eligibility: Full-time summer internships offered through IES Abroad (via IES Internships) are eligible for the Simmons Funded Pathway, allowing qualifying students to utilize institutional funding for these intensive summer experiences.
