Dear Husky,
Global work opportunities are a valued part of the student experience at Northeastern. One may ask where to start their global journey.
Consider the following:
Are you interested in a free short-term virtual global work badge program?
Do you want to know what global work experiences are available to you at NU?
Do you enjoy cross-cultural professional activities in partnership with fellow students while exploring global markets?
Do you want to learn more about your work cultural identity and the impact of your work globally?
About GWC 2023:
The GWC 2023 badge is a summer program offered by Global Co-op Council and Employer Engagement and Career Design.
