【Internship】Notice of publication of intern deliverables

 

This summer, the results of the interns accepted online are posted on our website.
https://consortiumkyoto-internship.jp/outcome/

 

In 2020, the internship program was forced to be canceled due to the impact of the coronavirus. Many students must have been disappointed because they could not have contact with companies.

Therefore, under the theme of “Let’s deliver an opportunity to think about what it means to work in the future,” the interns interviewed two Kyoto companies about what they want to hear now, such as “new initiatives in the Corona disaster” and “the power we want from students”!

All nine days were held online, and five students from overseas, the Kanto region, and the Kansai region wrote the articles and created the layout.
Please read on!
