France remains one of our top draws. IGS was hired by an international organization to handle their Paris-bound interns. We set up twelve different internship options around the city. Our students have worked with investment bankers in the fast-paced world of international finance. On the opposite spectrum, a student worked at the Perfume Museum sharing the history of scent with visitors. Photography is highly in demand request and IGS has paired a student with a fashion photographer in the city center. An anti-child trafficking advocacy group has handled the highest number of our participants. They have a footprint in developing countries where underage girls are caught up in illegal prostitution. Previous interns have helped led campaigns that promote awareness of this troubling trend. Outside of Paris, we have placed students with a leading theater company in Nantes and a marketing company in Monaco. Side trips are always a draw with Toulouse and Marseille high on their list.

Our French Language Immersion & Area Studies Program has two important goals: to improve your written and verbal proficiency in French through language and area studies courses and to introduce you to contemporary France and its role in the European Union. A beautiful city on the Loire River, Nantes is the perfect place to perfect your French. For more than 50 years, this program has been offering students the opportunity to fully integrate into French society and function completely in French, thanks to the program’s focus on full immersion and the fact that there are few Anglophones in Nantes. This program has a close relationship with the Université de Nantes, so you will have many opportunities to enroll in local university courses. IES Abroad courses are taught in French by native French faculty, many of whom are professors at the Université de Nantes. You also have access to the university libraries, computer labs, cafeterias, and sports facilities, and you are welcome to join student clubs and other social and sports organizations.
