Rome, the capital city of Italy, is also the 4th most populous city in the European Union and has a history that spans 28 centuries! It is home to rich culture and insanely beautiful, famous sites such as Vatican City and the Colosseum. Lose yourself in the winding streets of the Trastevere, explore ancient Roman ruins, visit world-renowned museums, and sample cuisines from all over Italy. There is something for everyone in Rome!

Many of the country’s largest corporations are headquartered in Rome, and it also has a thriving start-up business scene. As the business hub of Italy, Rome has a wide range of internship opportunities in Business, Marketing, Communications, Fashion, Art, Design, and Architecture. Familiarity with the Italian language is a plus, but most of our internships in Rome are for English speakers.

Over a period of 12 weeks, interns complete in-person, credit-bearing internships for 240 hours and enroll in Italian language and culture courses taught at the AIFS Abroad Rome Center and online. These courses are designed to help participants understand their host organizations and colleagues, as well as learn essential Italian phrases for daily interactions such as getting directions, ordering food, and engaging with local customs.

Make your resumé stand out with an international internship in Rome, Italy, this spring, summer, or fall and experience living and working abroad!
