Asia
Champlain College is the recipient of a prestigious grant from the Freeman Foundation, helping Champlain students from any major participate in a summer internship in cities such as Kyoto, Bangkok, Seoul, and Ho Chi Minh City. These internships are full-time and not for credit unless students pair them with an online Champlain class.

Dublin
Who is eligible for an internship in Dublin?
Successful internship candidates will have a 3.0 GPA or higher and must be approved by their Program Director and ultimately approved by Champlain Abroad to pursue an internship for credit. You must enroll in the Study Abroad Internship course SAP 293 (3-credit) or SAP 390 (6-credit).
Please note that internship placements are not guaranteed. Champlain will support you in your efforts to prepare, but ultimately, placement will be at the discretion of the company. All internships in Dublin during the semester are unpaid.
How do I apply for an internship in Dublin?
- Set up a mandatory meeting with our International Internship Peer Coach from Career Collaborative to develop a professional resume and LinkedIn profile and practice your interviewing skills. Your career coach must approve both your resume and LinkedIn profile prior to the application deadline. Schedule a meeting with the career coach who supports your major.

Third-Party Programs
Most third-party programs offer internship opportunities; however, every country, every program and every term is different. If this is something that you want to do, be sure to make it part of your search criteria. Internships as well as other types of programs are often easier to do in the summer so be sure to include that in your search parameters if that is a possibility.
Intern Abroad
Explore the Global Marketplace
All business is global; make it an intentional part of your experience through a study abroad or international internship. Your global experiences will not only broaden your worldview, but make you stand out to future employers.
Each year since 2013, Robert P. Stiller School of Business students have traveled to various countries in Asia for life-changing internships, courtesy of a prestigious grant from the Freeman Foundation Grant.
