A Guide to Environmental Internships Abroad
Prepare for an Internship
Understand the benefits
Environmental studies have so much to offer in all regards of the field. Regardless of your area, you’ll benefit from:
- Boost your resume and experience. The field can be very competitive, and any hands-on experience can set you apart in the market and what you want to pursue.
- Meet all sorts of faces. From other coworkers to community members, to even different animals, your office could take you anywhere.
- Sample what work could be. With the number of specialties in the field, there are plenty of different-looking types of days. Get a better insight into what your future may hold!
Things to know
No two internships are the same, but here are a few key points to expect that can help you navigate the essentials and make the most of your time abroad:
- Basics - Most international internships are 25-35 hours per week, usually 9-5, but hours may vary depending on the program. Available year-round with minimal experience needed, just interest in the field.
- Logistics and safety - Pack light with versatile clothing. Have emergency funds, backup documents, and a plan for any major changes while abroad.
- Cost of living and accommodation - Research the host country’s cost of living and budget accordingly. Look into public transportation, grocery costs, and other logistics to manage your expenses.
- Social and cultural etiquette - Learn basic greetings and research local customs, professional expectations, and social dos and don’ts to navigate smoothly.
- Visa requirements and other information - You’ll likely need a visa unless you’re native or staying short-term. Contact your embassy, airline, and program to ensure all paperwork is in order.
