Seoul National University Global Talent Program 2008

 

Global Talent Program

The GTP supports Seoul National University undergraduate and graduate students with an opportunity to apply their academic knowledge in the global work environment. In doing so, students enhance their job-related skills in an international and intercultural setting. The CDC offers Global Talent Awards for successful applicants who secure international internship employment through the GTP.

 

Program Structure

 

Students can participate in the Global Talent Program throughout the year, depending on their schedule and the depth of experience they may wish to attain. Our innovatively designed program consists of several components that provide students with the training and guidance to facilitate successful internship applications.

 

Program Highlights

 

Development Training

Throughout the GTP process, the Career Development Center provides students with a series of tools that enable them to maximize on their chances of seizing an internship opportunity abroad. CDC does this by training each participant how to write international CVs and cover letters, as well as how to achieve success in an interview. In addition to these tailored services, the GTP helps students to broaden their understanding of leadership and international business in a multicultural setting through a rigorous academic curriculum.

The Global Talent Award is automatically offered to students selected for international internships. This award is designed to assist students in meeting part of the expenses incurred while doing an internship abroad.
