Program Overview

Location Overview:

A historical city set in the heart of the Czech Republic, or Czechia, Prague has been shaped by cultural, political, and artistic history. Nicknamed 'City of a Hundred Spires,' it is one of Europe's best-preserved cities and is noted by it's distinguished skyline and architectural diversity. Walking through the city, students can view medieval, Baroque, Gothic, and Neo-Gothic architecture, as well as iconic sights such as the Hradcany Castle (Prague Castle), old town hall with the astronomical clock and tower, famous cathedrals and towers, as well as iconic bridges that span the Vltava River. As an artistic hub, it was known as the home to composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart well as the renowned author Franz Kafka who was born and spent much of his life in the city.

Although a home for history and architecture-lovers, today, the modern city of Prague is the business, political, and cultural center of the Czech Republic. It blends its rich Bohemian heritage with a modern European identity and makes it an unforgettable internship destination.
