IGB Global Internship Program

Our programs strongly encourage students to participate in global internships where they work for an organization, preferably in an overseas location, and provide value on an actual business project. The IGB has created several international opportunities for our students, including our main partnerships with Timken, TCS and Rotary International.

Timken Global Internship program

A Partnership with Timken gives students the opportunity to work with a truly global and local company. Learning sessions focus on soft skills in addition to the technical, on-the-job experience. Networking sessions allow interns to meet with Timken executives and associates in all parts of the company. The Internal Career Fair gives interns an opportunity to explore all full-time career opportunities.
