I longed to visit a location that is constantly evolving and offering endless possibilities. Singapore, being a thriving global hub, is that place. It opened my horizon up to numerous things that I would never be able to learn from textbooks. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to live in Singapore for 8 weeks and intern for an amazing American Fortune 100 company, Caterpillar Inc.

Customized Internship

The Fisher Global Internships: Summer program matches you with a company, organization, or government agency that fits your interests and skill sets for an unpaid internship. By leveraging partnerships with organizations across the world you can gain a meaningful 8-week global internship experience.

Global Experience

Fisher Global Internship participants network with diverse global professionals and learn relevant international business etiquette that enhances their ability to work with companies around the world. Interns join a community of Ohio State alumni who have interned with organizations across the globe, learned about major studies in a foreign context, and explored business practices outside of the US. During a global internship you have the opportunity to live and work in a foreign country and immerse yourself in a new culture. During the evenings and weekends you can travel and explore the city in which your internship takes place and partake in activities unique to your global location!
