Global Internships

Intern stands next to a sign with many arrows pointing in all directions.

Gain valuable international experience with a Global Internship! As an intern, you'll meet mentors and colleagues working in the international arena and advance your career goals.

Our Global Internships span the globe with placements at Cornell Global Hubs partner universities, community nonprofits and NGOs, and global practitioners partnering with Einaudi's regional and thematic programs. We offer internships specializing in global development, climate and sustainability, international relations, communication, business, governance, and more.

Over 70 students are sharing their international summer experiences at the Global Cornell Experience Showcase. Join us on Nov. 19 to learn from last summer's Global Interns!

Funding Amount

All Global Interns receive an award totaling at least $3,000 for airfare, transportation, and living expenses. A portion of the stipend may be paid directly to the in-country host to support housing, food, and local transportation. Find specific funding information under the "cost" tab on each internship’s Experience page. The stipend fully funds the estimated total cost.
