Summer Study/Intern Abroad

Students in EuropeSummer Programs give students the opportunity to study in a foreign country for a short period, often focusing on intensive language study or one aspect of a country or culture. For example, students can experience the Korean language and culture, work with and study the Australian Indigenous population, or travel to Russia to learn about the history of Communism. Students who wish to improve their language skills or learn about a special academic subject in another country will benefit from Summer Programs. This is also a good option for students with a very rigid major or paradigm.

START PLANNING FOR SUMMER 2023!  We recommend you apply between November – January 15, 2023

Our deadline is January 16th, 2023, but some programs may have earlier deadlines.

COVID-19 Notice: Program availability is subject to change for Summer 2023 due to entry restrictions, travel advisories, and program cancellations. 

Travel and living abroad at this time poses new and different challenges. Maryville College (MC) recommends that only students who are fully prepared to remain aware of the changing situation in their host environment, and who agree to take responsibility to ensure that they are acting in accordance with the rules, regulations, and recommendations of their host communities, participate in programs at this time.

Please reach out to studyabroad@maryvillecollege.edu to discuss your goals and available options. You may also wish to consider our remote / virtual options.

Maryville College students have the opportunity to do any internship abroad of their choice during the summer. However, the International Programming Committee has also taken the time to pre-approve some specific programs and partners. These summer internship abroad opportunities are linked here.

MC Study Abroad Scholarships are only available for approved programs.

Each program has a different application process and form available on the partner website. Generally an initial online application will be required, and at some point you need to be prepared to submit a resume and take part in an interview.
