The Mason Center for Global Education, in partnership with Abroad China, offers students the unique opportunity to participate in a professional academic internship in Beijing. Students are placed in professional internships for academic credit, based on their course work, skills and personal/professional interests. Many internships will include a stipend from the company that helps pay for students daily meals and transportation. Placements include (but are not limited to) business, commerce, trade, the arts, communication, history, culture and politics.

In the 15-week fall and spring options, internships are complemented with a weekly class focusing on Chinese Life & Culture, taught by local faculty in Beijing. Students intern four days per week, gaining valuable practical experience, and participate in the formal class one day per week. Students are evaluated according to their performance at the internships, and are also required to complete reflective and research assignments as part of their coursework (From both the Mason Faculty Director and their Beijing professor). All students, both Mason and non-Mason, are eligible for career counseling, resume writing tips and internship search strategies from Mason's University Career Services, in SUB 1, Room 348.
