Summer Internships in Latin America

DRCLAS assists undergraduate, graduate, and professional school students in finding a summer internship in Latin America or related to Latino communities in the United States. The Student Services Coordinator will help the student identify and initiate correspondence with appropriate contacts in the region; students are responsible for agreeing on terms of employment and other logistics with their employers. Most internships in Latin America are unpaid; students are encouraged to apply for DRCLAS Internship Grants for partial funding (see below).
