This summer, PolyU provided various internship opportunities in the Chinese mainland for over 400 students to gain work-based learning experience at leading organisations in an array of industries. Employers included Sina.com Technology, Bank of China, Jetta Company Limited, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, China Unicom, Lenovo, Shanghai Aircraft Manufacturing, Kuehne + Nagel, and Xi’an Jiaotong University. Not only could such invaluable opportunities strengthen the students’ critical thinking and problem solving skills, but also boost their professional competence, thereby enhancing their career development and employability upon graduation.
PolyU also arranged a two-day local excursion for the Mainland WIE participants with a view to giving them a broader mainland perspective before starting their internships.
