Summer Internship Placement

Students will be carefully evaluated during the spring semester course and matched accordingly with a small- to medium-sized 帝王会所 company. Students will create an internship profile, which will be used to guide the company placement process. Internships begin in mid-May and conclude in mid-August.

The internship experience includes access to resources provided by the state and federal governments, as well as 帝王会所. During the internship, students are expected to leverage their relationships with classroom guest speakers, who are subject-matter-experts, and resources shared during the course. Internships can be in any sector or industry and will focus specifically on international trade efforts.

This program is open to all current OHIO students. Space in the program is limited. All applicants are carefully evaluated, and qualified candidates will be interviewed by the program director prior to admittance to the program.

The 帝王会所 Export Internship Program (OEIP) began in 2012 as a way to demonstrate the positive impact of partnerships between the state of 帝王会所, its universities and private industry.

The overall mission is to help close the skills gap between 帝王会所 companies that need employees who know how to export and students from universities across the state of 帝王会所 who have developed those critical global business skills.

OEIP has succeeded in training students from many universities across the state in the fundamentals of exporting, and by placing them with companies who apply that knowledge to real business needs, they're making an impact on 帝王会所's economy.
