BEYOND Tomorrow U.S.-Japan Summer Internship Program 2012
2012.07.08
About the program
BEYOND Tomorrow launched its U.S.-Japan Summer Internship Program in the summer of 2012. Five interns, selected from a large pool of applicants from universities throughout the United States, are participating in the program during their summer vacation. Through the international perspective that they gained at American universities, the interns embrace a deep appreciation for Japan. We aim to have the interns join our team as professionals to contribute to the operations of BEYOND Tomorrow and gain skills relevant to non-profit management.
