The New Era of Global Co-ops
Northeastern offers students opportunities to travel abroad on a variety of programs. With over 130 destinations, it can be daunting to decide where to work.
The library of country info sheets on the menu to the left is a starting point for researching each of these destinations. The information presented offers an overview of the job market and internship opportunities, but it is not exhaustive. Students are encouraged to seek advice from the global network at Northeastern and peers in addition to browsing application platforms for global internships and careers.
Are you interested in doing a Global Co-op?
Join co-op student Danai Vleta for an informal and interactive session on global co-op, including advice on how to prepare, what to expect in the application process, and the daily realities of living in another country.
Danai Vleta is a student at Glasgow Caledonian University in Scotland, doing her Global Co-op at the Employer Engagement and Career Design department.
Every Thursday from the 7th of May until the 25th of June.
Please choose a session that fits your timetable.
