Best Websites for Finding International Internships in 2018

Internship means the position of a student or trainee who works in an organization, with/without pay, in order to gain work experience or satisfy requirements for a qualification. Internships play a key role in student’s academic career and gives best opportunity(s) to work with great professionals in that particular area. These are very useful and advantageous when we are applying for higher education in top ivy schools. They will give special priority to applicants who have completed internship(s) previously.    

It’s my personal experience that when I was applying for ivy schools for higher studies like MBA etc, admission team asked me about internships and other curricular activates. They impressed by seeing my internships in different organizations and they discussed about internships as “it is the best time you can learn many things from experts as a student and it seems your interest towards your career goals.” Definitely, internships play a key role for your higher studies in top ivy schools as well as during placements/job interviews. But most of the students except from developed countries, they don’t know what the importance of internships is and simply they are losing the opportunity to gain the knowledge/experience. Most of the universities are not including internship criteria in their course curriculum and some cases, even it is available in academic curriculum, students are neglecting to undergo internships.

University Roles to Implement the Internship in Academic Curriculum

  • All the universities must implement the internship in all academic courses and take the strict action on implementation.
  • They must explain the importance of internships to all colleges/institutions.
  • Universities must collaborate with the different organizations for internships of students.

Teaching Faculty Roles

  • Even universities instructed to undergo internships, students don’t know how to approach the organization to get the internship position(s).
  • Most of the students they may not have interest to undergo internships. At this situation, teachers must change the mindset of students and make them to undergo internships.

Funding/Stipend

  • Most of the organizations are offering stipend for internships.
