Summer Internship Program in London

London is one of Europe's largest cities, a major financial and commercial hub, as well as one of the world's leading cultural and artistic centers. The Berklee College of Music Summer Internship Program in London is a 10-week internship program, which provides students an opportunity to gain professional experience in their chosen field, while being immersed in British culture. Interns will be required to work at the internship site 20 hours a week for approximately 10 weeks and attend a British Life and Culture class two days per week.

Furnished housing, including paid utilities and a weekly cleaning service, is provided for students by the college. Berklee housing in London is provided by Anglo American Educational Services. Housing for 2012 has not been confirmed, but interested students can read about Anglo American Educational Services housing. In past years, Berklee students have resided in several locations owned by Anglo, including the Ability Towers Apartments, North Gower Street Apartments, and Westburn Townhouses.

Here's what students are saying about their experience in London:

"I had a global experience and have a better knowledge of the business and [music] industry. You make the internship what it is, by putting in what you have to offer."
—Chris Lee, performance major, interned at Lo-Max Records

"I really enjoyed London and its vast music scene. I would recommend [the program to] any student who has an open mind and wants to work, learn, grow, and experience an amazing summer. It was the best experience I have had in years and would definitely do it all over again."
—Silvina Moreno, music business major, interned at Camden Bars

"The Summer Internship Program in London is a unique chance to see the world and how the music industry operates in Europe. It is an amazing city, and it gave me the opportunity to travel to different countries. I would not trade this experience for the world. This internship really is one of a kind and everyone should do it."
—Doug Orey, music business major, interned at Peer Group
