Opportunities to Study Abroad
The School of Engineering and Technology International Engineering Program offers credit and noncredit internship opportunities abroad. Internships are full-time positions, and work assignments last from the middle of May until the middle of July. These internships allow students to gain technical experience in international companies, knowledge of a foreign culture, improved foreign language skills, and other benefits of an intercultural experience. Juniors or seniors with grade point averages of 3.0 or higher and specific language skills are eligible to apply. Participants receive a stipend to cover a major part of their expenses. Living accommodations are arranged, usually with a host family. Free time for travel, study, and recreation is available at the end of the program.
