About (SeoulTech) 2025 Spring Semester Internship-Based Inbound Program
“DEVELOP YOURSELF IN A UNIQUE CULTURAL AND PROFESSIONAL ENVIRONMENT IN SOUTH KOREA”
The Internship-Based Inbound Program is designed for students from overseas universities interested in studying at SNUT for one or two semesters, with the additional opportunity of completing an internship. Participants are required to enroll in 1-2 courses at SeoulTech, and the credits can be transferred back to their home institution. Students wishing to join this program must apply individually through Global E&S (GENS).
Although students in this Internship-Based Inbound Program are granted the same status as exchange students, they are not eligible for tuition waivers. The tuition fee, set at 3,500 Euros per semester, includes tuition, program, and internship fees.
** If you have a quota for exchange students and want to switch it to this internship-based inbound program, it is not possible. This internship-based inbound program operates independently of the exchange student program and is specially designed for students who want an internship. Therefore, it operates regardless of whether it’s with partner or non-partner institutions, and is not related to any exchange student agreements.

I always wanted to explore the life and career in Korea, and with Global E&S I had the most amazing experience. I was able to work on different aspects of the project and had extraordinary responsibilities which helped me grow and develop and gain a sense of what it is like to be a part of the working world.
Interning at The Korean Teaching Company, I had several responsibilities and opportunities to work independently while growing professionally and as an individual. With the support of my coworkers, the experiences built my confidence and I learned from my successes and failures while making lifelong memories and improvements. Everyone in the office was kind and supportive, willing to help me learn the Korean culture and more. I am grateful to have worked here with everyone.
This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. The people at the internship were really nice and spoke English which really helped because I did not know any Korean when I started interning at the company. They made me feel welcomed and would answer any questions I had about Korean culture or anything else. During my spare time, I would explore the city since everything was new and completely different from where I came from. This was my first internship and it was such a great experience that I wish I could do it again.
