HTIR International Internship

Updated on Tuesday 03 June 2008

HTIR is a private organization that refers international students to United States colleges and universities that offer paid internship employment to qualified Master degree students. These opportunities (sometimes known as co-op programs or curricular practical training (CPT) programs) allow international students to work while they are also attending classes, even beginning in the first year of their Master's studies.

Either part time or full time (40 hours per week) employment is allowed, depending on the preference of the student. All of the internship positions are with off-campus American based companies in the vicinity of the university. Wages are paid at the same rate as for domestic workers in similar employment and vary from minimum wage for entry level CPT applicants and higher wages for those with more skills and work experience. Classes are offered during daytime, evening and week-ends to accommodate the students' employment schedules.

These co-op programs provide qualified international students an opportunity to obtain curriculum related practical experience working for companies in the United States, while working on their Master's degrees. These cooperative educational programs provide an education that combines both theory and practical experience. Students will exceed the education obtained by theory alone, making these Co-op programs an extremely valuable experience. By advocating for international cooperative educational programs HTIR, in conjunction with American colleges and universities, will assist qualified international students in obtaining an education that will equip them with skills necessary to compete in the world-wide market. Through this program, International students have the right to complete their required internship by working in part time or full time PAID employment with American based companies near the campuses. All wages paid can be kept by the students and used for their tuition and fees, living and personal expenses.

INS authorizes students to work full-time from the beginning of their first year of study when the employment is related student's graduate majors.

The degrees and concentrations currently available are:

1. MBA
2. International Business

6. Financial Management and Investment Banking
7. Management Information Systems
8. Management in Information Technology

For those with a non-business background, the MBA preparatory courses offer unique opportunities. For individuals whose primary background is in the study of law, engineering, computer science, architecture, the social or natural sciences, or other non-business field, pursuit of a graduate degree in business is an excellent opportunity to complement their education, improving their chances of promotion and broadening and enhancing their employment options.

Particularly for students with law or engineering backgrounds, for whom many career possibilities exist within the world of business, the lack of a background in business administration can be a barrier to many excellent career opportunities. These business programs can bridge the gap between knowledge of the law, engineering, and other non-business backgrounds, and its application to business situations.

These Masters degrees provide a basis for relating the world of technology to today's growing spectrum of human knowledge needs. The programs combine traditional core skills with the innovative management strategies and techniques business leaders most need today to help manage an organization's information systems.

Graduates will be prepared to plan and manage information associated with the staff, financial, communication and operational needs of organizations. These Co-op programs are designed for students who value both classroom and practical experience.
