Our Co- Operation The AIESEC Experience program, which promotes Internationalism and cultural diversity will indeed add value to Universiti Tun Abdul Razak. When students from your institution go for an internship overseas, they become ambassadors of Malaysia and the University itself. This will also help Universiti Tun Abdul Razak in terms of overseas branding and exposure. Universiti Tun Abdul Razak‟s mission is “To become the Centre of Excellence in fostering Managerial Leadership and Entrepreneurship in the Development of Human Capital through Quality Research, Teaching and Learning, and Professional Services”. AIESEC Experience Program would be perfect for scholars in your institution to challenge their world views, equip them with the necessary skills and qualities to be top class students and responsible citizens.
From your side To ensure the feasibility of the programmes, Universiti Tun Abdul Razak‟s help is appreciated in:
Permission to conduct promotional activities in Universiti Tun Abdul Razak In order to recruit students for the programmes, we will need your assistance in permission and logistical support to create awareness about the AIESEC experience. The promotional methods are setting up booths, virtual promotions, flyers, posters, information sessions and workshops.
Encourage students to participate It would be great if Universiti Tun Abdul Razak could assist us in the promotion of our programmes to encourage students to sign up for personal and professional development opportunities that we offer.
Sponsor or subsidize students for internship
This would be a great investment and initiative to encourage and motivate Universiti Tun Abdul Razak students to take up the programmes especially for students who have financial constraints without hampering their possibility towards self and professional development.
