Along with your fellow interns on the program, you will also connect with local professionals in your career field at your internship placement. As with most small cities, the working atmosphere can be a little more informal than other places, although it depends on the type of workplace. We’ll support you every step of the way to make sure your internship in Galway is an experience you’ll never forget.
