Republic of Panama Internship Program

Panama: Panama City
The Florida State University has been a strong and important presence in Panama City for over 50 years. Florida State Panama is, in fact, our oldest international program. With such deep roots in a multinational crossroads city, we have excellent working relationships with Panamanian agencies and enterprises. Internship opportunities are especially interesting because both the region’s natural and business settings are so distinctive. The Republic of Panama is a center of world trade and the meeting place of two oceans. It is an unparalleled place in which to learn about and enter into Latin America’s crucial world role

Note: Internship applicants must have an advanced level of proficiency in both Spanish comprehension and conversation. Total immersion in the language and culture is part of the internship.
