Overview

Opportunity Description

Spend your semester getting real world work experience in one of the world's economic centers. We have a wide range of placement opportunities - nearly whatever you're looking for you'll find in London.

In addition to working at your placement, you will also take a course at the Arcadia London Center aimed at providing a framework for reflection and a research project related to your internship.

What is unique about this program?

On the London Internship Program, you’ll engage with London as both a professional and a student. You’ll intern eight hours a day, three full days per week for 10 weeks, with coursework designed to complement your work experience and to reinforce your professional and academic interests. There are placements available in wide range of industries. If you want to build your resume, this is a great program option.

In addition to your internship placement and Arcadia's Cornerstone Course, you will enroll in three additional courses selected from a wide range of course offerings for the Arcadia in London program, with the option to enroll in courses at a local partner institution (tuition fees will vary):
