Internship Preparation in the US

It is important that you spend some time gaining practical experience in the United States before you embark on your internship in Spain. The companies in Spain stated that it would be best if  ESP students had some experience in industry before coming to Spain. For this reason, you are encouraged to participate in summer work experience (internships). At least one summer is required, but two summers are better. It is your responsibility to seek these summer positions.

Please attend the University or School of Engineering sponsored Career Fairs or Career Expos. This provides you additional opportunities to find summer internships.

In addition you are responsible for:

  • Preparing a professional resume and keeping it up to date,
  • Registering for Engr 3281 to have your internship noted on your transcript,
  • Developing and maintain professional references from your summer internship(s)
