For over 60 years, the Summer Work Program (SWP) has opened up academic and professional opportunities for countless Princeton undergraduates. As the oldest international internship program of its kind at Princeton University, the SWP takes learning beyond the classroom by connecting Princeton undergraduates with summer internships in Germany. 

 

The program has been very successful at stimulating interest in German language and culture at Princeton. Interns improve their German, gain professional experience in their respective fields, and make important contributions to their host organizations.  The program also recruits native speakers of German for positions requiring a higher level of language proficiency. An excellent opportunity for students to connect with another culture, the SWP is an important vehicle for promoting transatlantic partnership and producing leaders with international experience. 

 

If you are an alumnus/alumna and would like to help out, please contact us. We are looking for internships (both paid and unpaid), lodging, and contributions to support students who have unpaid internships.​
