Life Changing Experience

The CIS Abroad Internship in Barcelona program was absolutely phenomenal. The CISAbroad team was extremely helpful, friendly, and accommodating. They helped us get prepare for the trip and embark on the trip by thinking of anything we might need or problems that may arise in advance. They were also always available if we needed any help or had questions about the city. They were prepared, knowledgeable, and nice.

Living in another country for 6-9 weeks is pretty life changing. You get to be completely immersed in new culture, improve your language skills, make unforgettable memories, eat great food, make amazing friends, and of course gain professional experiencing by interning. Our internship group is now a group of lifelong friends that still occasionally meets up to have dinner and catch up.

Interviewers have asked me about my internship abroad experience and I think it's quite valuable to be able to say that you worked in a foreign country for a foreign company and have that experience under your belt. It's something on your resume that really stands out.

I'd strongly recommend this program if you have time to do fit it into your schedule. It's a great alternative to an entire semester studying abroad which an experience that is arguably more valuable since you gain professional experience.
