Taiwan companies offer internships in Dongguan

Fifteen Taiwan companies in Dongguan, Guangdong province, are offering 128 internship positions to students from eight Taiwan universities to allow them to gain knowledge of business operations.

The students will spend nine months starting September at the companies in the program jointly organized by Dongguan University of Technology, the Humen branch of the Taiwan Businessmen Association Dongguan and eight Taiwan universities, including the Taiwan University of Science and Technology, and the Taipei University of Technology.

The program is much longer than previous internships in Dongguan offered to Taiwan students by other organizations, which mostly covered two months in the summer vacation, says Chen Wei, the dean of the Guangdong-Taiwan College of Industrial Science and Technology, of the Dongguan University of Technology.
