What advantages can an internship abroad offer?

• Learning a new language
  You learn to use the foreign language directly in a professional context including the relevant technical terms.
• Intercultural competence
  You experience the customs and traditions of a foreign culture firsthand, thereby broadening your personal horizons.
• Personal development
  A longer stay abroad builds character. In addition to greater flexibility, tolerance, openness, and independence, you learn to adapt quickly to new and unfamiliar situations and environments.
• Application advantage
  Those who can demonstrate an internship abroad on their resume naturally have a better chance of success in their application than those who have not completed one.
• Social networking
  You can make numerous personal and professional contacts during an internship abroad.
