In addition to the CALS International Exchange Program, CALS undergraduates can spend a semester or year studying abroad through the Cornell Abroad office. Students enroll directly in universities in Australia, participate in fieldwork in Africa, or explore the wonders of a foreign city while participating in an internship. CALS recognizes that students study abroad for a variety of reasons, and as a result, offers a great deal of choice for its students.

The ILR/UCD Semester in Dublin Program is the first initiative in what is intended to be a comprehensive educational and professional collaboration between the ILR School at Cornell University and the Industrial Relations and Human Resources Group of the School of Business at University College Dublin.

ILR seniors now have an opportunity to earn a one-year Master in European Business from one of the world's top business schools. The program includes two semesters of study, each at a different campus of the European School of Management (Paris, London, Madrid, Berlin, Torino) or partner institutions in India (MDI Gurgaon), Thailand (AIT) Bangkok and Mexico (ITESM Monterrey). Coursework is followed by a 12-week internship in the country of the student’s choice. This program builds on an existing and successful partnership between the ILR School and the ESCP-EAP European School of Management. Graduate students at both institutions have had an opportunity to participate in a dual degree program at the graduate level. The MEB program now offers ILR seniors the chance to enroll after completing your ILR degree.

For most of its history the ILR Credit Internship Program operated almost exclusively within the United States. In recent years, however, we have sought to expand its scope in attempt to offer our students unique opportunities to experience industrial and labor relations in an international setting. The ILR School established a unique partnership with the International Labour Organization in Geneva, Switzerland several years ago. We now routinely place students in the various offices, agencies and departments of the ILO, including recent placements in Nairobi, Kenya and Beijing, China. Other opportunities exist with ILO offices in Cairo, Egypt, Bangkok, Thailand, and other select locations.
