China Internship Program
China: Shanghai
This Florida State University Internship program is offered in conjunction
with Globalinks Learning Abroad (Globalinks) and provides students with a
unique opportunity for real international
work experience and immersion in Chinese culture. Shanghai is the largest city
by population in China. Within the past two decades the city has undergone rapid
development, and as a result, Shanghai has grown into a powerful global city
that prides itself on commerce, culture, media, fashion, finance, technology, and
logistics. All of these emergent industries make Shanghai the ideal location for
students interested in one of the most flourishing economies in the world.
Program participants will be assigned an intern placement prior to departure for
Shanghai. To help ensure successful internship experiences, students are required
to complete CHI 1120 Elementary Chinese I or its equivalent prior to the program
departure date. Timesheets, evaluations, and weekly written feedback will be collected
and submitted to the Internship Coordinator. There will be a 3-day orientation upon
arrival in Shanghai. During the orientation, students will be given on-site instructions
about the city and their placement. Internship placements will begin the following
Monday. Students will stay in shared apartment-style lodging. A weekend excursion
to Beijing is also part of the program. This experience and exposure will raise
awareness of, and potentially provide entrée to, a variety of career opportunities.
Additionally, interns will gain unparalleled practical work experience, make
invaluable business connections, and acquire exceptional employment references.
