Internships

Students who are interested in participating in unpaid, not-for-credit internships are encouraged to do so.

The Resident Administrative Director will make every effort to assist interested students in finding internships but positions are not guaranteed.

Positions are generally easier to find during the break between the fall and spring semesters but some students do intern during the semester as well.

A high command of German and previous experience in the field of interest are required.

BCGS students have held internships with:

local government offices
banks
consulting firms
cultural centers
political organizations
film production companies
