Highlights of students' experiences

"This summer, I completed a three-month internship with the law firm of R眉ckel & Collegen in Munich, Germany, through the German-American Exchange program. [...] As an intern, I read witness statements and gathered quotes, translated multiple letters and texts from German to English and vice versa, read and summarized legal documents, and researched various topics. Additionally, I was given the chance to observe the questioning of a witness in the trial of a former secretary to the commandant of a concentration camp, the resolution of a disputed divorce settlement, and multiple meetings with clients. This internship was perfect for me in that it allowed me to simultaneously progress towards my goal of fluency in German and gain firsthand experience in an industry of interest. [...]  In light of these advancements, I feel well prepared to make the most of my semester abroad as a member of 新澳彩开奖结果鈥檚 Freiburg Study Group."

"I worked in the Product Development and Marketing department at Ford鈥檚 Merkenich site for two months. There, I completed a variety of projects surrounding the launch of their new electric vehicles. My tasks included researching the implementation of gamification to attract customers, strategizing BEV development and marketing, and providing an overview of how car brands illustrate their sustainability goals. [...] My internship at Ford helped me gain an understanding of how a corporate and global enterprise functions; from the number of departments needed to coordinate ideas and executive decisions before a task is completed to the political nuancing within sections to assure one鈥檚 consideration for promotions. My German improved thoroughly and near the completion of my time in K枚ln, natives were no longer responding to me in English."

鈥淜assel is a sprawling, multi-faceted city, with beautiful parks perfect for a stroll, and plenty of art and cultural museums, including The Herkules Monument, and Lowenburg Castle. In January I began as an intern at Uni Kassel for their International Winter University, or IWU. As the program's intern, I would normally be tasked with joining the foreign students in the culture group in the classroom, however due to 新澳彩开奖结果's fantastic German program, I was the first-ever IWU intern who spoke German. This led to me working both within a classroom setting, and running errands in the city, traveling with the students to other locations. During this time, I was also able to find a job. Through Uni Kassel I began working as an English tutor where I helped a woman preparing for a conference trip to Japan. While I was the teacher in this situation, I learned a lot about how different languages can intersect, and the diverse opportunities available to me as a multilingual student abroad. I found my time in Kassel rewarding, as I experienced a mix of language, culture, and independence as I navigated every-day life in Germany.鈥
