IFSA Internships in Barcelona
IFSA - SUMMER INTERNSHIPS IN BARCELONA
Geotag  Barcelona, Spain

WHY STUDY IN BARCELONA
A thriving metropolis located along the Mediterranean Sea, Barcelona is one of Europe’s true gems. The city features a beautiful Mediterranean climate, a vibrant business environment, a reputation for some of Spain’s best food, and an “old city” charm complete with iconic Gaudi architecture at seemingly every turn. This student-friendly city is proudly and staunchly Catalunyan, providing insight into the culture and politics of one of Spain’s most intriguing regions.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Build your resume with an internship in the incomparable Barcelona, where you can enjoy the seaside Mediterranean culture, foods, and nightlife while gaining meaningful work experience. With easy access to the rest of Europe, you can explore all that Barcelona has to offer during the week and quickly visit other European cities on the weekends. 

Enhance your learning and develop marketable skills with an eight-week Summer Internship in Barcelona. You can start your internship in late May (Session 1) or late June (Session 2), whichever works best for your schedule. You can also combine study with an internship by enrolling in the four-week Summer in Barcelona Session 1 followed by the eight-week Summer Internship in Barcelona (Session 2) program.
