Do an Internship Abroad. Go For It!
An internship abroad is a key component in recognizing the workforce differences and commonalities in today’s ever-globalizing business world. Regardless of where you decide to intern abroad, you will learn firsthand the ways in which cultural norms influence the practice of business in that country. Through an intern abroad experience, you will learn to think globally and come to understand how the world is interconnected through business. Adding an international work experience to your degree will make you even more competitive in today’s multicultural, global business environment.
