Why Host an Intern from TUJ

The advantages of hosting in an intern from TUJ are numerous. Your organization gets temporary pre-professional support from university students eager to be involved in a professional environment and dedicated to doing a good job. You have the chance to contribute to the professional development of a student and open the door to potential new hires for your organization. You also establish an academic relationship with the oldest, largest and best-known American university branch campus in Japan.

At TUJ, we believe that an internship is an invaluable opportunity for both students and organizations. Students can extend their classroom learning and theoretical knowledge, into the real world and get a taste of what it is like to work as a professional in the industry of their interest. In turn, hosting organizations have a chance to utilize our students' energy and skills as well as observe potential hires without long-term obligations.
