Placements are available in international and non-governmental organizations, businesses, banking firms, and the communications industry. Students also worked with Hong Kong legislators, consulting firms, and trade magazine publishers. All internship placements are finalized in Hong Kong following an interview. To be considered, fill out the Internship Request Form of the enclosed application. While specific placements cannot be guaranteed, every effort is made to match a student's background and interests with an appropriate organization.
Students meet periodically with faculty advisers during the internship period.
The internship grade is based on an evaluation by the site supervisor, a submitted journal, and a paper analyzing the internship experience. Placements in fashion and retailing are not available during the regular academic semesters, but are available in the summer. The project should be approved in advance by the home-campus academic adviser. A faculty member in Hong Kong in the appropriate discipline of study will supervise the project and assign a grade upon completion of the project. Typically, evaluation is based on a 15-20 page term paper, though assignments may vary depending upon the project or research.
