NOTE: The Southern Cone Internships of  Latin Immersion are not affiliated with the State University of New York's Latin American Southern Cone Programs.
Today's increasingly competitive job market demands that you not only possess high academic credentials, but that you also must have prior work experience.  Students without such experience, normally acquired through student internships, often face severe handicaps in the job-hunting process.

Southern Cone Internships gives students the opportunity for professional work experience in Buenos Aires, Argentina or Santiago, Chile.  By interning in Latin America, not only will you learn the invaluable Spanish language, but you will also be able to live in the "Southern Cone", Latin America's most economically and socially developed region.

Benefits

Accepted students:

• Obtain professional experience in the international business world.
• Earn college credits for work abroad.
• Improve language skills at Latin Immersion's Spanish schools in Argentina and Chile.
• Gain new perspectives by living in a different culture.
• Make a valuable contribution to developing economies.

Note:  All internships are unpaid positions.

Eligibilty

To participate in Southern Cone Internships, you must meet the following requirements:

• Completion of at least two years of college studies.
• Commitment to attaining advanced Spanish communication skills. Students not at the advanced level will take a Spanish immersion program.  Depending on initial level, you should expect to study between two and 14 weeks.
• Completion of the Internship Preparation Course, a two week private course individualized to your internship.

Academic Credit

Please see your career office for intern credit requirements at your school.  You will often be able to receive credits for both your Spanish course AND your internship.  Upon completion of the program, we will send your institution:
