Dates: June - August 2010. Exact dates TBD
Tuition: $5,395
Duration: 7 weeks (1 week orientation, 6 weeks internship)
Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina
Join a group of other interns dedicated to making a difference in Buenos Aires. After a week of intensive orientation, you will work full-time at your internship for the next six weeks.
Interns live together in in an apartment building or University housing in electrifying Buenos Aires. You will grab a media luna and a cafe cortado before taking the bus or subway to work like the millions of Porteños do every day. After work you may be invited by your co-workers to share some Mate (Yerba tea) or even go to an "after-office" to talk about the day's work. Your "lunfardo" or slang will surely improve rapidly as you make friends and learn what it takes to get things done in Buenos Aires.
A wide variety of internships will be available with socially orientated businesses, nonprofits and NGO's.
In most cases Spanish will be an asset, but no required.
Most interns will live in group housing. Final arrangements for housing will be confirmed before an internship offer is made.
