Internship Courses
Course numbers depend on the field of specialization in which the student completes his or her internship and the nature of the internship. Placements are contingent upon the student’s past experience, language ability, and available opportunities, so flexibility is essential.

CAS PO 453 Internship in Comparative Law
CAS PO/IR 455 Internship in International Organization

The internship course consists of four major components:
a) the internship itself (evaluated by the supervisor)
b) a highly structured, midterm oral briefing (evaluated by the internship director)
c) two fieldwork interview assignments
d) a final reflective and analytical written report, evaluating the student’s personal, professional, and academic development in the course of the internship (evaluated by the internship director)
Courses are taught by local Spanish faculty and the Boston University summer program director.
