Program Highlights

Before you go, we work with you to fine-tune your résumé, perfect your cover letter, and hone your communication and interview skills as we prepare you for working in a new cultural environment.

You are guaranteed a placement at a local business or organization where you will work for at least 28 hours a week.

Strengthen your Chinese language skills at your internship placement and in an optional 3-credit language course.

Choose from housing options in either a homestay with a local Chinese family or international student apartments with other IES interns.

Save time for IES field trips outside the city such as a visit to Tongli, the town often referred to as a "Chinese Venice", or a 10-day post-program trip to Tibet (additional cost).
