The Student Internship Abroad Program (SIAP) aims to provide student interns the opportunity to acquire practical knowledge, skills and desirable attitudes in a multicultural work environment. The program allows interns to experience applied learning and cross-cultural training exposure in the promotion of global competitiveness.
