Internship abroad

The Personalised Internship Programme is open to all current students and recent graduates (within 12 months of graduation).

No minimum grade average is required, but you must be able to demonstrate a good level of English, with a minimum level of B2.

The internships can last for 8/12 weeks.
ATTENTION, not all destinations offer the 12-week option!

For information about costs visit the destination page.

Cattolica International offers 20 scholarships of € 1.500.

Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of academic merit and paid as reimbursement of expenses.

Your programme application is also valid as application for a scholarship: you do not need to make a separate application. 

For the award of scholarships, precedence will be given to current students over recent graduates.  

Included in the programme is the activation of the Student Safety Package, which includes: 

• insurance cover valid for the entire length of the programme abroad;
• Activation of the Student Safety app, which helps manage emergencies

After the registration deadline, the International Office will collect your application and send the documents you uploaded during the application phase (CV and Cover Letter) to the provider you selected based on your chosen destination.

Subsequently, you will be invited by the provider to participate in the initial introductory call, during which you will have the opportunity to verbally convey what you wrote in the Cover Letter. We encourage you to schedule the call as soon as possible so that the provider can begin the placement search.

We advise you to regularly check your Icatt email inbox as well as your personal email to avoid missing important communications from the provider!

Additionally, in the week following the registration deadline, our office will compile the ranking list and allocate the scholarships based on academic merit.

Then, we will schedule an initial orientation session together to understand the subsequent steps to be taken!
