Practise your language skills on the job locally or around the world! 

During the academic year and during the summer months, members of the business and not-for-profit community are often looking to hire students who speak various languages such as French, Spanish, or German.

While some of these organizations are not affiliated with Memorial University, the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures, and Cultures posts information from credible organizations in our community and from around the world to assist students with finding great opportunities.

Working in the community locally, elsewhere in Canada, or even internationally offers students the chance to network and use language skills in a business setting. Some of these opportunities are paid which can help offset the cost of university tuition, books, and living. 

Check deadlines early and mark your calendar - some deadlines for international programs are even in the Fall of the prior year!
