INTERNSHIPS IN

Siena, Italy

Siena is a humble yet vibrant university town in Tuscany, arguably the most beautiful region of Italy. Relax in a café on the Piazza del Campo, a medieval square and public gathering space, and stroll through the narrow cobblestone streets while exploring the 17 contrade, or districts.

As one of the smaller cities where GlobalWorks offers internships, Siena offers a more familiar pace of life with an economy built on tourism and agriculture. Siena is an ideal place to experience medieval and modern Italian culture, food, art, architecture, and politics while interning with local Italians.

Internship Duties & Sectors

*NOTE FOR SUMMER 2023: Please note that for the Summer 2023 quarter, there are only a few available options for students to work in Siena. Students can choose to work in the areas of Wine Marketing, Event Management, or Hospitality. Our students coordinate with our GEO Center in the area and work for a beautiful local estate that has vineyards and olive groves, and is run as a certified organic farm. In addition, the space hosts wildflowers, animals, a small farm, and a vegetable and herb garden.
