    Just do a Google search for where you want to Intern. There's loads out there. The main thing to keep in mind is what you plan to do after college and gear your internship towards that. You could feasibly do two different ones, one next summer and one after graduation.

    I know that outside the EU, that Australia and the US have quite a few internships. Ireland also has quite a few, but it's very competitive. The bigger firms have offer internships with reasonable pay. If you were interested in both years, I would consider the one in Ireland or the EU first. Then, for the following summer, you could avail of the J-1 visa in the US, which will allow you to work in any position really and travel, but you could use it for an internship. You could also go to Australia as well. They have a number of internships available as well.

    Good luck.
