About Program
An international internship in Edinburgh gives you an amazing opportunity to live and work in a fascinating global city. Scotland's capital city is set among towering hills, parks, and ancient buildings - many from the middle ages.
In Edinburgh, you’ll be kept busy with your internship while also being part of social events and excursions. As with all capital cities, the working atmosphere can be a little more formal than other places, although it depends on the type of workplace.
AIFS Abroad is dedicated to making your internship in Scotland an experience you’ll never forget. Students and young professionals from the U.S. and Canada, don’t miss out on this life-changing international opportunity!
Please note, the program fee includes a guaranteed internship, housing, social events, a career development program, 24/7 staff support, health and travel insurance, and much more.
