Winter Session Programs
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted travel all across the globe, including our Winter on-site programs, but it doesn't have to disrupt your education or goals. For students looking to complete course or internship credit this winter, several virtual international programs are being offered.
Why do a virtual program? According to Forbes, "Even if you can’t show up in person, you can still show up—ready to learn, work and grow as a professional. With many predicting that the future of work after the pandemic will be remote, a virtual internship [or program] can be a bootcamp for the skills you’ll need—communicating effectively, operating as part of a team, meeting deadlines, asking for help, and more—for the rest of your career."
