Home/Internships

The LLIC Program Committee is under discussion with different companies and organizations in Hong Kong, Shanghai and other cities in China regarding internship placements and collaboration. As one can imagine, it is a difficult year for all industries and we are doing our best to confirm internships with as diverse a group of companies as we can.? We appreciate your understanding in this regard.

The number 1 most important quality to have when working overseas is FLEXIBILTY! The chances of you enjoying your summer experience are greater if you remain flexible and adaptable about the details (ie. Being comfortable with possibly not having the ¡§dream¡¨ internship) and retaining a sense of humor and adventure throughout the program.
