Each UC Davis Virtual Summer Internship program pairs UC Davis Study Abroad with a partner organization that manages the virtual internship placements, prepares you for the virtual experience, and provides advising support throughout the placement process and throughout your virtual internship. As part of the placement process for Virtual Summer Internships, participants will first enroll through UC Davis Study Abroad and then complete a supplemental application for the partner organization associated with their particular program.
