Program Overview
Intern in Dublin with an individually tailored placement designed to support your academic and career goals in psychology and social services. Participants are matched with organizations that align with their interests, offering meaningful experience in an international context.
Dublin’s dynamic social sector, diverse communities, and strong emphasis on mental health and human rights make the city an ideal setting for psychology and social service internships. Opportunities may include working on research projects related to mental health or organizational psychology; engaging with youth psychology and social work initiatives; or contributing to non-profits that defend and promote human rights or support immigrants, refugees, and at-risk youth and their families. Placements span a range of settings, from community organizations to research institutes and advocacy groups.
The program includes a virtual pre-trip orientation (via Zoom) and an extensive on-site orientation to help you learn about the community, your cohort, and your internship, as well as professional development and cultural activities. Apart from work for the internship, you will also engage in an online course facilitated by a UC Davis faculty. The online coursework provides an opportunity for meaningful reflection during the program. You will spend approximately 32-40 hours per week at your internship and another two hours per week for the online course.
