Fully funded GIFT internship in South Korea

If you’re a third or fourth-year engineering student who’s interested in ferrous technology, which delves into the iron and steelmaking process, then consider this internship as a stepping stone for you to extend your knowledge and skills in the field.

The best part about this paid internship abroad is that it gives you global and practical exposure in the field at one of the best universities in South Korea: Pohang University of Science and Technology ranked 71 in QS World University Rankings 2023. The internship will last approximately four weeks, notes Youth Opportunities.

While the summer internship will commence in July 2022, there’s also a winter internship, which is expected to begin in January 2023, said reports. It’s worth noting that at the time of writing, the university has not updated its website to show its winter internship recruitment, so do keep your eyes peeled for updates.
