Program Overview

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.

international organization to handle their Paris-bound clients

For my internship, I worked for an international organization to handle their Paris-bound clients. It’s an international NGO and supports causes on human rights and anti-child trafficking. We were also gven tasks on digital marketing. A learning experience for me. This is a dream come true for me. I didn’t think it was possible, since covid happened and there are massive travel restrctions. But im glad that igs reassured me that im well taken care of. Thank you so much to dr adams for the great communications and constant follow ups.

Wonderful sceneries!!

On weekends, we went to seaside resorts of the côte d'azur, France. Wonderful scenery. As a romantic I greatly enjoyed the fairy-tale castles and old cathedrals.. we went to see eifell, the louvre museum, fell in love with France over and over again

Perfume museum internship

Im very much interested in the arts and scents too so I chose to work at the Perfume Museum. I shared the history of scent with visitors. We had trainings and orientations before deployment. The employees are very hospitable and particularly helpful to me. We are also given tips on choosing scents and other skills that I might need once I go to college. Happy with these.
