Internships
Time spent abroad for study and internship activities constitutes an integral part of the International MBA Program. Through partnership agreements with academic institutions in Europe, Asia, and Latin America, International MBA students gain an international experience by studying abroad and/or working abroad! U.S. Students must include 12 hours International Experience in Semesters 3 or 4. International Experience is defined as 12 hours of study abroad and/or 12 hours of an international internship. If students so choose they can do both study and internship abroad. International Students will study and/or intern in Memphis. Internships are optional. US International MBA students can intern abroad or in Memphis. Securing an appropriate internship is the student's responsibility and must be approved by the IMBA Program for academic credit.
