Professional Development

A for-credit part-time internship allows students the opportunity to have practical work experience in a company within engineering, technology, or science sectors. In addition to the on-site business experience, students participating in an internship program have a weekly classroom component, which provides academic support to their practical experience. In previous semesters, CIEE Dublin students have been placed in internships with organizations working in diverse areas from Artificial Intelligence to Medical Diagnostics to Food Science.
