Each student is working with their advisors from the American Institute for Foreign Study (AIFS), based in Costa Rica, England, and Italy, to submit cover letters and resumes and schedule interviews with potential internship supervisors abroad. Some students have interviews as early as this week. Internships that students are interviewing for in Costa Rica include a graphic design internship with an environmental conservation organization, as well as a kinesiology placement with a nursing home providing various services to senior citizens, including physical therapy. Students planning to intern with companies in Italy and England will begin their interview process in the next few weeks. We are looking forward to hearing about this inaugural cohort\u2019s virtual global experiences!<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the program, please visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/smccd.edu\/studyabroad\/semesterabroad\/virtual.php\"><strong>Spring 2021 Virtual Global Internship page<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong> For questions, please contact <a href=\"mailto:studyabroad@smccd.edu\">studyabroad@smccd.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>SMCCCD Study Abroad is the district-wide study abroad program housed in the Global Learning Programs and Services Division at Skyline College.\u00a0 For more information about studying or interning abroad, faculty teach abroad opportunities, community travel for lifelong learners, visiting international faculty presenters and student scholarship opportunities, please contact Zaid Ghori at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:ghoriz@smccd.edu\">ghoriz@smccd.edu<\/a>\u00a0or (650) 738-7088 or Stephanie Wells at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:wellss@smccd.edu\">wellss@smccd.edu<\/a>.
