Program Overview

Program Description:

Students begin this program with two five-week intensive academic courses, followed by a seven-week full time internship placement. 

Students complete each component consecutively, which will allow them dedicated time to focus on the academic courses and internship separately, providing a better balance between study and professional development. Some three-day weekends have been built into the program, leaving plenty of time for exploring the rich local culture of the host site.

Setting Description:

Santiago, both the capital and largest city in Chile, bustles with activity and is home to more than a third of the nation’s inhabitants. Despite its large size, Santiago’s extensive public transport system, including an underground subway, makes it an easy city to navigate. Students will enjoy its incredible views, where the city’s skyscrapers and surrounding mountains can be admired from afar, as well as its museums, historic sites, shopping centers and restaurants.
