Welcome to NYC (Session A)
Published on 2013-05-26
The annual Cross-Cultural Internship Program (CCIP) successfully organized two consecutive days of orientation on 26th and 27th May 2013. Sixty-nine Hong Kong and Singapore elite students from Session A met the representative of program organizer, Fusia Communications, at Flushing YMCA to celebrate this significant moment.
On the first day, students were split into two groups to attend the Post-Arrival Orientation and revised important issues through discussions and a question-and-answer session. Issues revised include host company guidelines, hostel and internship regulations, and safety guidelines.
The organizer of CCIP, Elizabeth Kay, said that this program is an opportunity for interaction between a student and his or her host company and other participating students. She appealed to everyone to actively participate and adopt a positive attitude in order to make this program a success.
Students are looking forward to experiencing their internship and challenges. Steven Wong, a student from City University of Hong Kong, said that the fundamental purpose of university is to apply the knowledge acquired, and overseas internship is a rare opportunity for one to do so. The knowledge and experience gained from this program will equip him to be a more capable student with global vision.
Thirty-three internship host companies participated in CCIP 2013, and 1759 students applied for the program, out of which only 137 students were selected. There will be 69 students in Session A of the program and 68 students in Session B. These students are from The University of Hong Kong, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Lingnan University, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and City University of Hong Kong, National University of Singapore and Nanyang Technology University.
On the second day of orientation, students took group photos in YMCA carpark to capture the memory of their upcoming internships and transnational friendships built.
