InteRDom Will Organize Presentation at Fordham University in Collaboration with the Department of Career Services to Foster Increased Cooperation

InteRDom will hold an information session for students at Fordham University in Bronx, New York on Thursday, February 5, 2009. The gathering will be coordinated by the University’s Department of Career Services and will take place the faculty lounge from 1-2 pm.

Through this event, InteRDom seeks to promote collaboration with students interested in furthering
their understanding of development, and in particular, present internships available for students interested in obtaining experience related to the management of information, either with a non-profit institution or media affiliate in the Dominican Republic. The Program is also very interested in fostering increased cooperation with the University’s Department of Career Services and hopes that such events will aid in doing so.

During the information session,
Fordham students will meet with InteRDom representatives, see a brief presentation and video about the program, and have the opportunity to inquire about the internship offerings available for the 2009 Summer Semester. Interested students will be able to submit resumes and fill-out application forms for the Program during the session, as well as discuss ideas for research projects with InteRDom team members.

To make a personal appointment with a member of the InteRDom
team in advance, please send an email to students@interdominternships.org

InteRDom, an initiative of Global Foundation for Democracy and Development (GFDD) and Fundación Global Democracia y Desarrollo (FUNGLODE), offers students the opportunity to gain professional experience by interning with Dominican organizations and businesses
related to their field of study.

The Program fosters and promotes the professional, academic, scientific, technological and cultural exchange of students and professionals in public, private and non-profit organizations of the Dominican Republic. It significantly contributes to the development of the nation’s employment sector and the advancement of academic research, while providing spaces for personal and professional growth, internationalization and
multicultural understanding.
