My daughter who isn't a US citizen is in Columbia University for her PG, and she is finding it difficult to secure for her Internship program.... What should she do?

Ans: Hello. Thank you for contacting us.

To answer your question first, the process for graduates at Columbia to get a summer internship can vary depending on the specific programme or department. It is difficult to get a summer internship in your first summer because it is likely you don't yet have sufficient knowledge and skills to contribute in a meaningful manner. However, if you are interested in going to graduate school after graduation, you can and should seek research opportunities in the summer. Many research labs are willing to accept freshmen and teach them the necessary skills to get started.
