Internships at IAU allow students to interact behind the scenes with French enterprises. Each of the internships with IAU has both a work component and academic component, simulating the steps of entering into the job market as well as maintaining a rigorous follow-up of reports and analyses by the students. The positions vary from small, independent businesses to multi-nationals with offices in the Aix-en-Provence area. Students are required to maintain a working-environment discipline within a French-speaking office setting. Students should have a minimum of four semesters of college French before applying.
