International Internships

Rolls Royce International Internship Program

College of Engineering Internship Application Process

The College of Engineering International Programs Office works to merge your academic background and career goals to place you in a single-semester, major related, full-time or part-time position. The experience helps students better understand the "real world" applications of their academic studies and allows them to appreciate the implications of a global workplace.

To apply, complete the online survey and provide a resume, cover letter and letter of reference to engabroad@vt.edu. Once our office has reviewed your information, we will schedule a meeting with you to discuss the next steps in the process.

If you would like more information about our International Internship Program, please contact Catherine Twyman at 540-231-5791 or E-mail International Programs.
