Internship in Barcelona

You'll be enrolled in our required International Internship Course, which focuses on the NACE Career Readiness Competencies and intercultural development. This course provides you with a framework to critically reflect on and analyze the transferable skills gained throughout your international internship and supports your self-awareness and personal growth in a cross-cultural context. By the end of your internship, you will be prepared to market your experience in any professional setting.

This online course is asynchronous and begins just before your internship start date. Successful completion of the course will result in a Career Readiness Micro-Credential that can be shared across digital platforms.

If you are interested in or required to earn academic credit for your internship abroad (including for visa purposes), you may explore the following options:

Transfer credit from University of South Florida: We’ve partnered with the University of South Florida (USF) to offer a U.S. transcript for all internship programs, for an additional fee of $375. A USF transcript will be sent to your home institution 2–3 months after the program end date. Letter grade and credit will be awarded based on the successful completion of written academic assignments, completed internship hours, and a supervisor evaluation.

• 8 weeks: 4 credits (minimum of 25 hours per week)
• 8 weeks: 6 credits (minimum of 32 hours per week)
• 12 weeks: 6 credits (minimum of 25 hours per week)

Credit from your home institution: You may work with your home university to receive academic credit for your program. Each academic institution has a unique policy for granting internship credit, thus students should inquire about receiving academic credit with their home university advisors, professors, and/or academic department heads.

If you are earning credit through your home institution, you'll still be expected to participate in the International Internship Course.
