The International Internship Fair was held in the multimedia room on the 3rd floor of the new Bauer Hall building on October 21. Many students who are interested in international internship programs participated in this fair.
The internship program at Keimyung University is divided into two parts: international internships and domestic internships. The International Internship Fair is held once every semester, and students who want to participate in international internships have a limited period of time in which to apply after the fair. The Keimyung University internship program started in 2006, and the first students went to foreign countries to participate in the international internship program during the first semester of 2007. The Center for Student Development administers the internship program.
In the fair, representatives from various internship programs explained the specific requirements of programs in different countries. There are 6 countries: China, Japan, the United Arab Emirates (Dubai), Canada, America, and England. The conditions of internship are different depending on the country. However, the Center for Student Development requires several qualifications regardless of the country. These are:
