At Immersium Studio we are pleased to have a new internship student, Greyson Simms. Greyson comes from Pennsylvania (United States) and is studying Finance at Susquehanna University. He will do internship with us from September to November, making his schedule compatible with the study about the gastronomy of the Mediterranean, the architecture of Barcelona, as well as a management class about leadership in a diverse world.
This intership has been possible thanks to our collaboration with Barcelona SAE. Greyson found out about Barcelona SAE from some alumni at Susquehanna who studied abroad at Barcelona SAE and spoke extremely highly of the program. We want to thank Barcelona SAE for the opportunity to have students do their internships at Immersium Studio, as it provides benefits for both parties. Students can put their knowledge into practice and we can contribute new ideas to our products, experiences and business processes.
Barcelona SAE is a boutique study abroad and internship program that provides personalized attention and focuses on this beautiful Mediterranean city that we call home. Their core values are the focus of their culture, their brand, and the overall student experience. Throughout their Cultural Mentor program, they have a wide variety of program options with flexibility to fit a schedule. Is Barcelona SAE they have created TODOS (The Outcomes-Based Diversity Outreach Strategy) aimed at removing the barriers keeping students and educational institutions of varied diverse economic, educational, ethnic and social backgrounds from studying abroad.
