Sydney, Australia

The Sydney Internship Program combines coursework at the Boston University Sydney Center with professional work experience in or near Sydney.

After completing the program's six-week core phase, students spend the final eight weeks in internships with organizations in the greater Sydney area, working full time, four days per week, while also taking one of three elective courses.
