Brazil: Your path to international experience
Internship in Brasil — an exchange program aimed at students who want to gain professional experience in Brazil in their field. Participants can complete internships in areas such as hospitality and tourism, finance, healthcare, education, environment, IT, marketing, and more. Internships are offered at international companies that are well-known in Brazil and worldwide, as well as at universities (in labs, research centers, etc.). Knowledge of Portuguese is an advantage when looking for an internship, but it’s possible to find a placement with English only. You can also take Portuguese courses while interning in Brazil. Work experience in the internship field is preferred but not a strict requirement. Job search and placement for participants happens before you leave for Brazil. The program sponsor finds only one potential internship placement.
Why join this program?
Opportunity to learn Portuguese and brush up on your English;
Professional work experience abroad;
Explore one of the most fascinating and rapidly developing countries in the world;
Immerse yourself in the spirit of the Brazilian Carnival;

Trip Reviews
These months of living and working in the United States have impressed me deeply. I live in a beautiful little house, and I can always go out to interact with the deer and squirrels on the road, an experience I have never had. The natural environment of the town I work is beautiful, there is no pollution, the weather is very blue, the air is too fresh!

Before I arrived in the United States, I was very worried about my oral English, but when I came to the United States, I found that I didn’t have to worry. Everyone is very friendly and kind to me, when I am in trouble, they will help me, teach me English pronunciation, teach me English spelling, English is not a problem. I hope more students can participate in this program..
