82 academic information You may take a language or culture course taught in Spanish, depending on the results of the online placement test (OLPT) and personal interview during orientation. We would like to make sure that you have selected the appropriate course(s) given your language level. In the case of a mismatch, students are notified and an alternate course may be recommended. Class Meeting Times The Summer Language and Culture courses meet Monday through Friday three hours per day for three weeks. Classes meet in the morning between the hours of 9:00 and 14:00, to allow students free time during the afternoon to explore the city, participate in CIEE activities, and make new friends. Size Summer classes average less than 20 students. Language classes usually have fewer than 15 students. Format Professors hand out and review the course syllabus on the first day of class. Course syllabi are also available to students prior to arrival. The grading criteria are clearly explained on the course syllabi, often including a midterm, final, class participation, and homework. academic information Attendance Your final grade is affected by your attendance. Professors require and monitor class attendance daily. The syllabus has a clearly stated policy on absences. Given the intensity of the sessions, please do not plan to travel or miss class. If you miss one class during the summer session, it counts as having missed 3 contact hours. Professors CIEE hires highly qualified professors, many of whom have several years of experience teaching Americans. These professors know your name and develop a close working relationship with you. Professors encourage you to participate in discussions on different and relevant topics. Cultural Activities Benefit from the exhilarating selection of outdoor activities, day trips, evening entertainment, and overnights we have carefully prepared for you. Want to get to know some sevillano students on a more personal level? Participate in the intercambio program that starts during orientation. Newsletter Newsletters are made available to students every Monday, listing important information concerning the program, health, and safety issues as well as activities throughout the week and following weekend. We invite you to read carefully the information in the newsletter so that you can take advantage of everything CIEE and Seville has to offer you during the summer. The newsletter may be picked up at the Center. It is also available on-line at www.ciee.org/studyseville/noticias. If you need help in any area related to your social and cultural objectives while studying in Seville, please contact Student Services in the Palacio. For academic issues, please contact your Resident Coordinator. We are here to help you with whatever you need. Summer Internship How many people do you know travelled overseas, lived with a Spanish family, and worked in a Spanish company… and all in the native language? A summer internship in Spain is a professional linguistic and cultural experience. While living and working in Spain, you develop the ability to adapt to an environment whose culture and values are different than your own, resulting in a heightened level of cultural awareness. The cultural and linguistic aspects covered throughout your internship make you a more attractive candidate for any position throughout your career as cultural awareness in the workplace is in high demand among employers.
academic information 83 For the next eight weeks you’ll receive a powerful combination of exposure to a professional Spanish work atmosphere and ongoing intensive Spanish business language training. Intensive Language Training and Placement During the first week of the program, you take intensive Spanish language in the mornings, Monday to Friday, three to four hours per day. In the afternoons you interview with companies to determine your placement. What type of candidates are internship sponsors looking for? Businesses are primarily interested in a student who is motivated, proactive, and eager to work; demonstrates common sense in compiling information with the final objective in mind; makes an effort to improve and expand his or her knowledge of the business; respects the work schedule; carries out basic tasks, as well as those more specific to his or her particular interests and abilities; possesses a professional, collaborative, and participative attitude; and takes on this opportunity with enthusiasm and a positive attitude. IMPORTANT! Placement with first choice companies is NEVER guaranteed. CIEE does NOT place students in internships. Placement is a result of a mutual agreement between the sponsor and the student. Before the Internship You should be placed during the first week of the program and will work from weeks two through seven. The following is a brief summary of sections in the internship guide that are designed to provide structure to the internship program. Letter of Professional Conduct and Confidentiality All program participants are required to sign a Letter of Professional Conduct and Confidentiality. The purpose of this letter is to make students aware of the sensitive nature of their position as an international intern and to declare to both the company and CIEE that he/she will act responsibly. Work Schedule Form During the interview process, work schedules are negotiated individually and must be respected throughout the internship. Work Hour Sheet If you accept an internship with a company that has more than 120 hours of work or if your home school requires you to work additional hours - you have the obligation to incorporate these hours into the negotiated work schedule. Learning Contract This document was developed with the purpose of creating a beneficial experience for both the company and you, the student. It establishes guidelines and structure, through which goals and objectives are evaluated. Academic Requirements At the end of the semester, each student will hand in a 10-page report on a previously approved research project. Students will present their findings in a 10-15 minute Powerpoint presentation which will be evaluated before a panel of judges. academic information Beginning your Internship A business internship consists of learning as much as working. Your main objective is to carry out work which will ultimately provide the company with an additional benefit, as well as form a part of the professional business environment, learn certain skills, and interact with co-workers. The language class empowers you with an extensive business vocabulary which, in turn, serves to facilitate communication with co-workers and improve your overall performance. Getting to know your Colleagues Initial contact with your colleagues generally happens on the first day. The internship advisor provides a basic introduction to the company, business activities, and the personnel who form the team. When meeting your colleagues for the first time, you should know what type of greeting is
