Enhance
your career with an international internship placement!
The Internship Program brings international students to the United States to experience intern and trainee positions with U.S. businesses and organizations. AAG refers to the Intern and Trainee Programs collectively as the Internship Program. Qualified participants are matched with internationally-minded U.S. organizations to receive on-the-job learning, build career experience, and to improve their professional skills and resume. Placements may be up to 18 months, depending on the participant’s field of study and/or occupational field. The program allows for one month of travel upon completion.
