The program curriculum combines an intensive internship with courses. Placement is based on professional interests and availability. Previous placements include Lloyd’s TSB, Accenture Plc, Air France, Working Titles Films, and BMW. Actual placement maybe with a different organization. Positions are available in the following professional fields.

Internships require a minimum commitment of 240 hours, although the company/organization may require more hours. Students earn 6 credits upon successful completion of the internship and accompanying academic work (term paper, regular meetings with academic supervisor, journal, etc.). Students must register for UNIV 3991 Internship Placement and UNIV 3993 Internship Seminar.

Courses

Courses are offered at Anglo Educational Service, a KEI partner organization. Since the program prioritizes practical experience, there is a limited number of courses available. Students must enroll in UNIV 3991 or MENT 4881 and UNIV 3993 or MENT 4893 plus 2 to 3 additional courses from the list below. MENT course numbers are for business-related internships; UNIV course numbers are for all other internships. Note that courses may change each semester. Contact KEI for the most updated course offerings and syllabi. Each course is 3 US semester credits.

Courses marked with an asterisk (*) are taught by professors vetted and approved by the School of Business at the University of Connecticut (UCONN), which is AACSB-accredited. UCONN also serves as the university of record for these courses and can issue the transcript (if requested by a student’s home university). These courses require a minimum GPA of 2.75.
