Partner with Us

We develop international internship opportunities for UW-Madison undergraduate students from all academic disciplines to develop a global talent pool to serve the needs of state, national and international employers. We are actively seeking organizations abroad that are able to offer substantive internships, whether in-person or virtually.

Our staff will work with you to customize the internship to your needs. We can help define the internship position, and assist in managing the recruiting and placement process.
