About Program

Work in one of the world’s leading business and finance hubs – Hong Kong. Known as ‘Asia’s World City’ the metropolis is a major meeting point for where East meets West and holds holding the highest Financial Development Index score, consistently ranking as the world’s most competitive and freest economic entity.

Along with a thriving business scene – most TEAN interns work in finance, business, marketing PR or law – the former British colony is home to the most skyscrapers in the world, more than 260 islands, and some of the tastiest food around. (You’ll be able to indulge in dim sum for days!) Take the leap into working abroad with help from TEAN, complete with internship placement, central studio housing, career advice and guided excursions.

Impact

Sustainability

To this end, TEAN is committed to providing experiential learning opportunities abroad that help build the knowledge, skills and attitudes students need to become locally engaged, civically minded and globally responsible. We believe that studying abroad should include learning about – and finding solutions to – our most challenging societal problems, such as sustainable development, climate change, biodiversity, resource use, habitat preservation, gender inequality and social injustice in a globalized world.
