CEA CAPA Internships in Barcelona, Spain

I had an internship in Barcelona, Spain where I had to execute comparative market analyses of foreign nations to create business plans, budgets, value propositions, assess risk, assess feasibility, and across 23 different metrics for potential clients. It was actually the coolest thing I have ever done. I saw F1, I saw Spain win the World Cup, I saw the Pope, etc. The food is much cheaper, healthier, and tastier. I love how the party starts at midnight and people just know how to enjoy life. Genuinely so blessed.

I really enjoyed my experience in Barcelona, and CEA CAPA helped me a lot during the process. They check in a lot, and they are always there to assist during the application process. The internship process was very simple, and they matched me with an internship that I enjoyed a lot. I loved all of the activities that CEA CAPA offered while I was in Barcelona, especially the Valencia trip which i enjoyed the most. The location of the CEA CAPA center is right in the heart of the city and next to the Gothic Quarter, so it was always fun to do some exploring between and after classes. Overall, I was very happy with my time abroad and with CEA CAPA, and I couldn't recommend them more to any students hoping to study abroad.

Spending the summer in Barcelona was an amazing opportunity. I had the opportunity to take classes while interning with a company in a whole new country. I was able to learn a ton about the global work environment while exploring new cultural differences. I also had the chance to travel all around Spain and Europe while abroad and see so many new places. Traveling abroad has impacted my entire future, and has inspired me to continue to learn about the world, and keep traveling to do so. My time spent with CEA CAPA this past summer was truly life changing.

I absolutely loved my time with CEA CAPA in Barcelona. Not only was I able to study abroad, I also was able to intern alongside my studies with a local events company. I went completely alone and met so many of my closest friends there. Not only did CEA provide excellent support every step of the way, but the city itself was so supportive. It was such a great experience to experience a new culture, city, job environment, and meet so many new people too. I would go back in an instant, and would highly recommend going.

I personally applied to study abroad without knowing anyone else who was going so I could throw myself out there and meet new people. That is exactly what I did! I had a great experience making new friends within the program and also making friends with locals. I made an effort to practice my Spanish while ordering food or talking to people on the street and sometimes my awkward stumbling over words made for a good moment of laughter and built friendships. A huge part of acclimating to this new environment was the supportive staff on site. They were so good at checking in regularly and offering assistance with anything, even something as small as navigating how to buy medicine. I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous to enter a new country so far from home and my family, but because of the supportive and welcoming environment this program fostered, I did not feel alone, and I was able to become comfortable very quickly.

I had the opportunity to work as a marketing intern in Barcelona and it was an amazing experience! I learned so much about working in a different culture and gained valuable hands-on marketing experience as well. I created graphics, videos, and flyers that strengthened my marketing abilities and learned how to do analysis on the success of those materials as well. I was given various opportunities to interact with many different people within the workforce and it was an unforgettable experience!

I had such a great experience interning abroad in Barcelona! I learned so much through my internship and got real hands-on experience in marketing while also getting to experience what it was like to work in a different country. I was able to work on social media, market research, and other marketing projects that helped me build my skills and confidence. I also learned a lot about working with different people and adapting to a new environment. It was such a fun and unique way to grow professionally while still getting the full study abroad experience. I would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking about interning abroad!

My internship abroad was an incredible experience, and I highly recommend it to other students. The company that CEA CAPA matched me with aligned very well with my major (business) and career goals. Because my team was very international, I got to meet many impressive professionals in the field and developed strong, meaningful connections that I hope to use in the future. My supervisor was also very understanding of my time and studies, accommodating my schedule with a lot of flexibility. I credit much of my positive internship experience to his support, as he created a welcoming environment that made me feel comfortable and valued.
