International Internships
Summer is the most popular time to participate in an international internship. It is best to start searching early for these opportunities. Because of visa and clearance issues, it will often take many months to process all important documents. Therefore, deadlines will often be earlier.
International Internship Checklist

- Research to learn more about opportunities in various countries. You can start by reading the country guides in Going Global.
- There are Hopkins alumni all over the world. Learn how to network and connect with alumni using LinkedIn.
