Whether you’re an undergraduate or in the Masters of Public Health program at the University of Georgia, an internship is required prior to graduation–and multiple internships are encouraged. And even if you’re a freshman or sophomore considering a Public Health major, there are few better ways to explore the field than by doing an internship.
Connect-123 has placed thousands of students into challenging, career-building internships around the world. As an official University of Georgia affiliate internship provider, Connect-123 is excited to offer international Public Health internships in Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Cape Town, Dublin, Shanghai, and Sydney.
Internships are designed to meet UGA Public Health internship requirements, including the number of hours.
I was able to grow tremendously as a student, a public health professional, and a person. It is all thanks to the Connect-123 program. Throughout my journey, the Connect-123 staff was always right by my side and advocated for me every step of the way. My advice to you, as a future Connector, is to go for it.
Connect-123 went above and beyond to get me this internship and without exaggerating, it has been one of the best experiences in my life! My program coordinator is absolutely wonderful and she will tell you everything you need to know about Cape town! If you're looking for a great way to live abroad, gain unmatched work experience, and have the time of your life, this program is for you.

We'll set up a time to speak with you to learn more about your background and interests so that we can create a program that's customized for YOU.
Our on-the-ground team will discuss your application with local organizations to find the best-fit opportunities for you. You never have to commit to anything until we find you something you love, and your deposit is 100% refundable if we don’t find you anything in your top 2 areas of interest.
We’ll send you all the pre-trip information you'll need, meet you at the airport and provide a comprehensive on-site orientation. From weekly events, to career guidance and 24/7 emergency support, we'll be there throughout your trip to ensure you're getting the most out of your experience -- while having the time of your life!
Due to immigration and tax rules, these international internships are unpaid. Instead, we focus our efforts on getting you the most meaningful and challenging work that will fuel your career.

When customizing a program for you, we’ll ensure that it’s aligned with your goals and interests and that you’ll receive tangible value.
