About Full-Time Internship Seville Summer Program
AIFS Abroad's Full-Time Internship program in Seville offers you a unique opportunity to earn academic credit while gaining hands-on professional experience in Spain's vibrant capital. You'll work 32-40 hours per week in a real workplace across diverse sectors including business, technology, fashion, hospitality, education, marketing, and nonprofit organizations. This isn't a classroom simulation—you'll be contributing meaningfully to actual company operations, building genuine professional skills that employers value.
The program places you in carefully selected host companies where you can apply your classroom knowledge to real-world challenges. Whether you're analyzing website performance for a tech startup, developing marketing strategies for a fashion brand, supporting educational initiatives at an international school, managing hotel operations, or driving social impact with an NGO, you'll experience the daily realities of professional work in a Spanish context. Internship placements span multiple industries: business administration and operations, IT and web development, digital marketing and research, education, entrepreneurship, fashion, hospitality management, nonprofit work, public relations, and tourism management. Each placement includes specific, meaningful tasks that contribute to your professional development.
Beyond the internship itself, you have flexibility in structuring your academic component. A 3-credit International Internship course (AIFS296) is included at no additional cost and combines your workplace experience with journaling, reflections, and assignments. If you need more credits, you can upgrade to a 6-credit course for $600, or add supplementary courses in Global Leadership and Workforce Development or Intercultural Communications in a Global Workplace (each $600 for 3 credits). All credits come from Fairfield University, appearing on an official transcript that transfers back to your home institution.
Seville itself provides the perfect backdrop for professional growth and cultural immersion. As Andalusia's capital, the city blends historic charm—from the iconic Alcázar palace to the Cathedral—with a thriving modern economy. You'll navigate a Spanish workplace, build relationships with international colleagues, and experience how business operates in a European context. The program supports your integration by providing internship placement, academic coordination, and access to AIFS's broader network of student support services.
This program is ideal for students across all academic levels seeking to strengthen their résumé, earn academic credit flexibly, and test their skills in a professional environment before graduation. Whether you're exploring a potential career path or looking to stand out to future employers, a summer internship in Seville combines meaningful work experience with cultural immersion and academic credit—all in one of Spain's most dynamic cities.
