Description

Internships are the best way to gain valuable hands-on experience in a professional field. A World Endeavors internship abroad will provide an opportunity for language and cultural learning as well as a personal and professional growth. In addition, international internships are a great way for a student or recent graduate to build their credentials and set themselves apart from other prospective job candidates.

Join World Endeavors for an affordable and unique internship opportunity in Piracicaba, Brazil (located a couple hours from Sao Paulo). A wide variety of internships are available including international business, marketing, public relations, arts and handicrafts, education, social work, event management, environmental studies, tourism and hospitality management, and cuisine. No matter what field of study interests you, you will be able to learn about the amazing culture and land of Brazil while adding to your resume and knowledge.

Highlights

Upon arrival in Brazil, participants are met at the airport and taken to the home of their host family. They will receive an orientation that will familiarize them with the local area, the Brazilian culture, and their program. For placements of one-month or longer, participants will receive a week of Portuguese language training.

Once the placement begins, participants should receive an additional mini-orientation at the project site that focuses on project opportunities and responsibilities. Participants doing 1 month programs, Portuguese instruction may be added. For participants doing two to three week programs Portuguese instruction may be added on to your program prior to leaving or on-site. It is not necessary that you know any Portuguese prior to participation in this program.
