If you're looking for a study abroad program, there are a huge number of options available. Some study abroad courses are simply a short program of study overseas, which can earn you credit towards your current degree. A study exchange can usually be organised through your current home University. You may want to take a short study abroad course to get an international experience or develop your language skills.
Longer study abroad programs are also available - if you have the time and resources, you can study an undergraduate or postgraduate degree abroad. This helps you develop skills in another culture that will certainly enhance your career opportunities.
You may also be able to combine a study abroad course with a paid or unpaid internship program. Study internships programs vary according to the study abroad course you choose. It may be a compulsory part of your practical degree, or you could spend your summer break getting valuable work experience and making great industry contacts.
No matter what study abroad program you choose, it will change your life. You'll make friends with people from all over the world, travel and experience things you never imagined. And it's a chance to break out of your old routine, and learn something about yourself.

International internship programs are ideal for students who want to add relevant work experience to their resume and develop valuable industry contacts. Some are paid, some are unpaid. Some may lead into permanent positions once you graduate, and some may offer in-house training that also enhances your degree.
You need to think about your long-term career goals when deciding which internship program is right for you. Would an unpaid internship working in your embassy in the US be as useful as working in a restaurant in New York? If you want to work in foreign affairs then the unpaid internship might be better. But if you want to work with Americans and develop your language skills - as well as cover some of your living costs - then the restaurant job could be perfect.
Will your study abroad program earn credits towards your existing course? How much time and money can you afford to spend on your education overseas? Is financial aid available? These are all questions that will help you decide on your study abroad course and internship program.
