<p>I'm a High School Junior and for the upcoming summer, I plan to attend a summer program or internship.</p>
<p>I want to major in the field of International Business, especially an emphasis on China. </p>
<p>Are there any programs any of you know that would fit that category? or if not, maybe just an excellent program in International Business?</p>
<p>If not any of them, then can you direct me to where I can find an internship?</p>
<p>THANKS!</p>
<p>How long do you want to do it?</p>
<p>There's quite a few weeklong ones like National Youth Leadership Forum and stuff like that that has International Business subtopics.</p>
<p>Longer...you could always do college pre-college programs and take International business courses</p>
<p>As for internships...finding local ones is probably the easiest. </p>
<p>Oh! And studying abroad is a very feasible option if you want. Then you can go to China :)</p>
<p>studying abroad sounds like fun! Do you know what programs by anychance?</p>
<p>I live in LA County. So any internships around there would be great.</p>
<p>If you know by any chance, would it be possible to provide me some links?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Oh, I forgot to say... about 2-3 week long for summer program</p>
<p>internship can be up to 2 months</p>
<p>thanks again!</p>

<p>I think CTY conducts one of their highschool-exclusive programs in Nanjing University, you could check that out.</p>
<p>Yeah, CTY sounds like a very prestigeous program, except I feel that it is too strict? From what I've read about it, they run it like a camp?</p>

They do run it like a camp, but that's because there were 7th graders. I think the International Programs are high-school only so they're bound to be a little more lenient. Besides, as an American teenager, you probably don't want to be wandering off campus in the middle of Nanjing anyway.</p>
<p>Oh. I definitely don't want to be with a bunch of 7th graders. I don't think the experience won't be that mature in that case.</p>
<p>And wandering off campus is not a problem for me. I speak fluent Chinese. When I was in Beijing last summer, they thought i was a local. The only problem is probably the culture boundary as I might not know the local tradition/ways.</p>
<p>It seems like CTY is probably not the best for me in that case.</p>
<p>CIEE has a great program (it seems) but says it's only for univ. students for their program in Shanghai (Shanghai Normal or Donghua). Does anyone know if they are negotiable?</p>
