Welcome Parents
 
Your Typical Summer?
 
ThinkChina Internships provides an unique international experience. Is your child looking to for something fun to do this summer? Are they interested in traveling abroad to China? Are they trying to figure out what to do after school? If you answered yes to any of the above, ThinkChina may be the program for your son or daughter!
 
International Internship
 
As a ThinkChina intern, students not only have an opportunity to work in a professional environment but they can do so in a field of their choice. They will have a truly unique opportunity to pursue their goals in one of the fastest growing cities in the world – Shanghai. An internship is a great way for a student to test the waters in a field where they have an interest. As your child soaks in the day-to-day life in China and experiences the realities of the workplace, they will be able to draw their own conclusions about whether or not a career is for them.
 
Student Placement
 
ThinkChina works closely with you and your child to find an internship that best meets their personal goals. Through the application and a phone interview with one of our Program Directors, the student indicates their interests and ambitions. We use these as a guide to find an internship that meets the interests of each student. ThinkChina has partnered with leading international firms and have worked hard to ensure that each internship program is educational and rewarding for each student.
 
Orientation
 
Before the start of the program, our Program Director will be in contact with each accepted student to address any questions or concerns. Accepted students will receive a welcome package to help them plan for their summer trip. The enclosed documents provide everything the student will need to know about the internship: contact information of the company/organization, dress code and grooming guidelines, and directions from the dorm to the internship site.
 
Corporate Partners
 
We screen all employers carefully to ensure that the work experience is aligned with the student’s goals and that each student will receive proper guidance for any challenges they may face during their internship.
