<p>Are there many internship opportunities at Mcgill?
Do many students even have time to do one?
Can you intern in a film studio or something similar?</p>
<p>There are internships if you look for them. My son had one for two years doing research for a professor working on a film study. Film study at McGill is purely critical and academic theory, no production or other film-craft areas. Concordia does have classes in editing and other film related topics if that’s of interest to you. </p>
<p>Because the stronger Canadian dollar has made it more expensive to film in Montreal, the movie industry is not doing too well right now, so I don’t know if you’d find too many internships available. Also if you’re there on a student visa you can’t legally work outside of the campus, although that’s suppose to change.</p>
<p>The Canadian government recently changed work policies so that international students can work off campus after six months of full time education.</p>
