Not limited to students majoring in Japanese Programmes, UEF has expanded this special "overseas" opportunity to students from all disciplines. As long as you have a passion for discovering culture and seeking work and learning opportunities with Japanese companies, this program is for you.
OCTOBER 17, the Center of Corporate Partnerships and the Vietnam-Japan Human Resource Development Center successfully organized An information session on the International Internship Program in Japan. The insights shared by faculty members during the event provided UEF students with an overview of the international internship experience and its rich value.
The event was attended by Mr. Vo Van Thanh Than - Director of UEF Center of Vietnam-Japan Human Resources Development; Ms. Nguyen Thai Ha, Deputy Director of the Center of Corporate Partnerships; Mr. Tran Hoang Nam, Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Business Administration; Ms. Cao Do Quyen, Assistant for the Japanese Language programme; along with students from various faculties and disciplines interested in the international internship programme in Japan.
The Japanese Internship Programme has achieved great success over the past two years, with over 200 students participating. To date, more than 50 students have returned after successfully completing their international internships, gaining valuable lessons and experiences. Ms. Nguyen Thai Ha encouraged third- and fourth-year students to consider joining the program. Participants have the option to choose between a six-month or one-year internship, depending on their personal goals for learning and experience.
Notably, this internship offers an attractive salary and excellent benefits from Japanese companies. Ms. Thai Ha emphasized that opting for a longer internship duration would provide students with greater opportunities for growth and experience accumulation.
Mr. Cao Do Quyen provided more detailed information about the program to the students. He outlined the specific roles participants would undertake at restaurants, hotels, inns, resorts, and other establishments in Japan. Additionally, he discussed the working conditions, benefits, and welfare policies that students would receive during their international internships. Students from disciplines other than Japanese Language will undergo training in Japanese language and hospitality skills at the university, as these are fundamental requirements before embarking on their overseas internships.
Videos depicting the lives of UEF interns in Japan were showcased during the sharing session. This sparked excitement and curiosity among UEFers, fueling their desire to explore and experience life in the Land of the Rising Sun. Any questions or uncertainties that students had were thoroughly addressed by the faculty during the program, providing them with clarity and encouragement.
With the expansion of Japanese internship opportunities to students from all disciplines, it is believed that the programme will attract significant interest and participation from UEFers in the near future. This will be a valuable experience, enabling UEFers to gain practical knowledge and skills in a country known for its advanced economy and rich cultural traditions.
