An internship in Psychology is a great way to build upon your academic and professional foundation in the field. Psychology placements through World Internships are typically mostly observational or research and administration based, as there are strict rules as to client interactions. Such a placement, however, can still guarantee exceptional exposure to the inner workings of a psychologist's office, mental health center, university, human resources department, or any other number of hosts. This is also a great way to get some exposure to a range of duties and disciplines so you can find out what subfield of psychology interests you the most. At the end of each week, take the time to immerse in Australian culture and experience life as an Aussie. Head out to the beach and learn how to surf, or simply join other people in catching the sun on the shore, instead of the waves. You can also delve deep into the Australian Outback, hike up the Blue Mountains for a visit to the rainforests, or travel to the Great Barrier Reef for a quick dip and snorkel. This program is also open to volunteers.
