What did YOU do this summer?
"Without a doubt the best thing about my internship was the international network I developed. I have professional and personal contacts across the globe. These connections would not have been possible without my MISTI internship."
-Madeline Elish, Masters in Comparative Media Studies

"It was a wonderful experience working at ICFO as part of the Caixa Catalunya Fellowship program. My internship at ICFO has allowed me to take part in exciting field of energy and the most cutting edge research in photonic science. It’s also a great experience to interact with young scientists from all over Europe and the world who work at the institute who are very passionate about their research."
-Siamrut Patanavanich, Materials Science and Engineering

Deciding to work at the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce for the summer was one of the best decisions I made in my life!! Not only did I get to work on a meaningful project to promote international trade, I also got plenty of chances to practice my Spanish, traveled all over Europe, and met some amazing people. Go for it, you will be in for one of the best experiences ever!
