Kaitlyn Campbell '26 is one of 66 students who will be studying overseas as part of the Iacocca International Internship Program.
Kaitlyn Campbell ‘26 had never traveled overseas before enrolling at Lehigh University, and only just received her first passport this month. She never imagined she’d have the opportunity to apply for a fully-funded international internship as a student.
"I went to an information session about it, and my first thought was, ‘This is too good to be true,’” said Campbell, a Dallas, Tex. native majoring in both Psychology and Health, Medicine & Society. “I thought it was really special that Lehigh offered something like this for students like me, because honestly, I wouldn’t have the financial opportunity otherwise.”

This summer, Campbell will be traveling to Cape Town, where she’ll be learning about industrial-organizational psychology and clinical psychology in the South African capital thanks to the Iacocca International Internship Program (IIIP).
She is one of 66 students who have received summer internships through the IIIP this year. From that cohort, 38 report that they have never been abroad before, according to Anastassiya Perevezentseva, Assistant Director of IIIP.
“We are pleased to welcome the 2025 cohort, who were chosen through a highly competitive selection process,” said Anastassiya Perevezentseva, Assistant Director of IIIP. “We look forward to the journeys ahead for each of our learners and are excited to enhance access to international opportunities for students.”
