We are all familiar with the phrase “actions speak louder than words”. This is literally incorporated into the internship programs available through the Institute for Cultural Ecology, which from this point forward will be referred to as ICE. The ICE programs are designed to match the academic goals and interest of the participant to the host organizations and researchers from around the world. This blending of international cultural exposure along with an opportunity to work with a team that has dedicated themselves to their law careers within their culture provides an educational experience and lifetime experience that forever impacts you as an individual and professional. Many students as well as professionals working to jump start their career turn to law internships for that the hands on experience that is so crucial.
Legal internships allow you to actively participant on various tracks of the legal system, encountering exposure and real life experiences working from all sides including working with a sitting judge and law clerk, experiencing the operations within a law firm, as well as learning the process and advocate change through participation in the legal department of a special interest group. Just check this testimonial from Emma, a legal internships participant - "We have loved Chicago sooooo much. Our placements (at personal injury law firms) have both been amazing, we are truly gutted to be leaving soon, I'm already looking for flights out here again sometime in the future."
Working within a community growing your skills and experience in a culture that is unfamiliar to you makes a much stronger impact on you that cannot possible be obtained within a standard classroom, embedding memories that will influence you and last a lifetime. Courtney, one of the interns, describes it - “This is an experience you can't have preconceptions about. The friendly people, stimulating information, and the unbelievable scenery will blow you out of the water. This internship is about new experiences that will open your mind.”
In addition to law internships, business internships can be designed by ICE to provide you the hands on experience working directly with a high profile public relations firm. You will be honing your business skills through developing press releases, writing media releases, developing media kits as well as tracking and monitoring media results to list just a few of the assignments in the media internships. The second track of this program will place you with a special interest group or specific business working directly in the PR department giving you the opportunity to promote an agenda about which you have strong feelings.
Another area of business internships is human resources. This challenging career choice works to align qualified, skilled individuals to fit the plans and requirements of the business. This internship also involves working with organizational design and development as well as individual performance management, conduct and behavior. Media internships is the last area we'd like to feature today. This opportunity can involve working in journalism, working at a community newspaper experiencing the hands on training for many of the skills required in this industry. Charlotte and Anouk Moerkerk talk about their media internships experience - "I am really grateful for this high quality journey into media internships. First of all, the apartment in Brooklyn is perfect. I am working on a project for a new television program and a press conference the station will hold next week. I have to make sure that a camera crew can shoot footage. The staff is really nice and friendly. I love New York!"
