When it comes to full-time summer internships in Australia, Sydney is where it's at! Here's why:

  1. An internship in Sydney puts you in the largest city in Australia, meaning you'll be exposed to myriad cultures, industries, and build a large professional and personal network while interning abroad. 
  2. You can work at the most quintessentially Aussie internships possible like a surf school on the world-famous Bondi Beach or a Sydney Harbour cruiseline.
  3. It might be winter in the southern hemisphere, but it's still perfect weather for exploring Taronga Zoo, climbing the Harbour Bridge, taking a ferry to Manly, enjoying Vivid Sydney light festival, and so much more.
  4. While it might be half a world away, Sydney is truly the best of both worlds. Sydney is a business capital of the Asia-Pacific region, but also in proximity to amazing natural wonders like the Great Barrier Reef and Uluru. From city to sea, Sydney's got you covered! 
  5. When else can you make the decision to live, work, and study this far away from home in this cool of a city?
