Columbia Global Internship

Explore cross-cultural learning opportunities to gain insight into social impact work.

Internship opportunities are now available for Columbia undergraduate and graduate students, each offering a unique chance for you to gain hands-on experience and develop key professional skills for social impact work that can align with your school or program practicum requirements.

The open Columbia Global internships include opportunities in New York City and primarily virtual positions with our Global Centers around the world. Interns will work alongside Columbia Global staff, faculty, and other academics supporting the design, implementation, and evaluation of global strategy, programs, or operations. Global Center interns may also have the opportunity for an in-person visit during a break in the academic year.

Internships in 2026-2027 will run from Oct. 26 to April 30. Interns will receive a monetary award tied to their start date and program schedule.
