Call for applications (window 1)
With the 2014 Cross Cultural Internship Program (CCIP, www.fusia.net) having come to a close in August, CCIP is now ready to find new faces for its next group of global leaders.
CCIP, an internship program that has taken place in New York City every summer since 2008, announced today the details for applying to the 2015 summer internship program. Registration opens on Saturday, October 18.
A glimpse of the 2015 program and application details are as follows:
About CCIP: CCIP is a US Department of State Exchange Visitor Program (J-1 Intern) committed to fostering mutually beneficial East-West cultural exchange, as well as a social enterprise project aimed at individuals and organizations that share a global vision.
Partner Universities: CCIP is a full placement program that accepts applicants who study full time at one of the program's partner institutions in Asia (i.e. NTU, NUS, HKU, CUHK, HKUST, HKIED, HSMC, and MUST). Students who study at non-partner institutions may apply starting on February 1, 2015, subject to space availability.
Host organizations: There are 20-30 host organizations, which are primarily small- and medium-sized enterprises where our interns have more opportunity to interact with decision-makers and be exposed to business operations. For a glimpse of the hosts, visit the Photo Gallery ( www.fusia.net/photos). Note that there may be a difference between the 2015 and 2014 host lists.
Internship curriculum: Participating students will perform internships in (1) Business; (2) Public Administration and Law; (3) Information Media and Communications; or (4) Engineering and Architecture, relevant to their field of academic study, at one of the participating host organizations (students will be asked to describe relevance with evidence such as transcripts, CVs, etc. upon acceptance). Examples of internship positions include: Advertising, Law, Public Administration (Government or NGO), Information Systems and Communications, Business (e.g. Accounting, Real Estate, Property Management, Marketing, etc.), Computer Science, Design, Mechanical/Civil Engineering, Logistics, etc. Aside from the internship, students learn about American culture through participation in a wide array of activities such as trips to DC and visits to government offices.
Internship periods: The next CCIP will take place in New York City from May through August 2015 over two consecutive seven-week sessions (ten or fourteen weeks for special circumstances). Participants will attend a 35-40 hour/week internship and reside together at the YMCA in Flushing, a diverse, vibrant, and conveniently located neighborhood in Queens, New York.
Fees: There are no application fees. Program administration fees will be charged over two installments: 50% due upon acceptance; 50% due in April after the J-1 visa interview. For details, visit www.fusia.net/fees.
2015 CCIP will accept applications over three registration windows on a rolling basis (due to limited space, first-window applicants get priority). The first window begins on November 18, 2014.
