As a policy student, I really am very interested with this internship. When my classmate told me her experience with IGS, I did not hesitate and applied. Good thing, IGS's courses are available the whole year, so I was able to find an internship suitable to my needs and preferences. I got to experience 3 weeks of fulfilling and rewarding internship, and actually make a difference on others' lives.

A Guide to Internships Abroad in Mumbai

Popular Internships in Mumbai

There are two distinct faces of this western Indian city: the skyscrapers and the slums. As the epicenter for finances, fashion, and film, those who are looking to intern in the high rises can get started climbing the corporate ladder. On the other hand, interns looking to work in medical fields or social work field can also find plentiful placements on the ground as well. 

The first thing to consider is how much time you have to devote to an internship abroad in India. Internship abroad in Mumbai are available on both a short-term or long-term basis, ranging from a month or so and usually up to a year. If graduation is looming, but you’re still working towards your degree, summer internships are also available and popular among students. Remember some internships are only a part-time gig, while others require a full on 40-hours-a-week commitment.

Mumbai is brimming with social work opportunities due in large part to the unfortunately high number of slums and impoverished citizens. This also makes medicine a popular field to intern in with availabilities spanning from nursing to nutrition to infectious and tropical diseases. However, if you’re looking to take a more corporate path, Mumbai is buzzing with several new startups and large corporations for those interested in business.

The last thing to consider when sorting out the details of your internship abroad in Mumbai is distinguishing between a paid and unpaid internship. In today’s job market, candidates vying for top positions are finding it increasingly competitive. Hands-on experience and acquiring new skills learned through internships often provide rising college graduates with a huge advantage. If the experience alone comes with promises of a future position, then the ramen dinners may be worth it. If not, find one that will pay you in more than experience.
