Exchange Student Projects
The Faculty of Business
Administration currently has 23 reciprocal academic
student exchanges with institutions in China, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden,
Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, England,
Scotland, Ireland, the Czech Republic, and Mexico. Our
students usually go on exchange in the fall term (September
- December), while the foreign students are here throughout
the year. These students can do a project for your firm
while receiving academic course credit.
Process
Outbound: In the
months preceding the exchange, selected local students will
meet with a firm that has a potential project. The student,
the firm and the faculty will agree on the nature and scope
of the project prior to departure for the exchange.
Inbound: Foreign
students would meet with interested firms upon arrival in
Newfoundland and then agree on a project, which will be
completed during their stay at Memorial.
Benefits
The firm obtains
information relevant to its internationalization plans. The
student gains valuable international business experience.
Cost
The firm would pay a
nominal administrative fee to the centre and cover any
expenses that the student incurs on its behalf (e.g. travel).
