I found that <strong>EUNICE had some partnerships with companies or labs<\/strong> that I was interested in.<\/p>\n<p>I once looked at an advertisement for the EUNICE program in my faculty while looking for an internship. <strong>The process was surprisingly simple<\/strong>: I applied on their website for maybe two companies whose work is related to my field of study, and a few weeks later I got a positive response from ISMN in Palermo, in the South of Italy.<\/p>\n<p>With this experience, I am more confident in my ability <strong>to work with a foreign crew in an English-speaking environment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>I learned a lot about different materials and how to conduct scientific research.<\/p>\n<p>I liked the fact that I could work on several projects at a time and track their progress.<\/p>\n<p>My two supervisors were always available to answer my questions and involved me in very interesting projects.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Embarking on this internship abroad was an adventure that not only provided professional development<\/strong>, but also a chance to explore new horizons, broaden perspectives, and create unforgettable memories in an unfamiliar environment.<\/p>\n<p>This program in Sicily (Italy) allowed me to discover this new place, very different from what I am used to, exploring parts of the region, trying the local food or enjoying the hot (sometimes very hot!) summer weather.<\/p>\n<p>Doing an <strong>internship abroad is an opportunity that allows you to stay in a place long enough to really get to know local life<\/strong> and do sightseeing without spending too much money, compared to tourists traveling for vacation.<\/p>\n<p>I hope that EUNICE will continue to grow by involving more and more universities and other institutions.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221;
