Global Career Launch
Global Career Launch is an innovative comprehensive global internship framework for undergraduate and graduate students to engage in high-impact work and research experiences abroad.
With three tracks, (a) faculty-driven, (b) corporate, and (c) third-party internships, UT's goal is to strategically increase the number of international internships by supporting prospective participants with funding, advising, and sustained engagement.
Faculty-Driven Internships and Research - Track 1
Faculty-Driven Internships and Research are identified and coordinated by faculty based on their connections at universities, research centers, corporations and other organizations.
Corporate Internships - Track 2
Corporate Internships are developed in collaboration with the UT Austin network of alumni, donors, board members and existing corporate partners. Texas Global will develop direct-sourced internships initially focused on placements in London, Paris, Seoul and Singapore. If interested in partnering please contact Heather Thompson.
Third-Party Provider Internships - Track 3
Third-Party Provider Internships are offered to UT students by partner entities specializing in academic and non-academic internship placements worldwide. With an emphasis on expanding the existing portfolio of academic and professional internships offered through third party program providers, we will continue to offer facilitated internship programs in over 25 countries and will develop new locations to meet the growing demand for placements.
