From Global Policy to Local Practice: Reflections on an Internship at FHCI
January 16, 2026by: ajarsenithThis placement offered excellent practical experience of theoretical insight into International Relations put into action on grassroots development in an education and gender-oriented NGO. As I supported curriculum, policy-relevant research and operation, I observed how global concepts- like the SDGs were being turned into local programs. Overall, it reinforced my research, analytical and professional skills and confirmed my passion for international development and policy-focused work.

Data Science Intern
December 24, 2025by: joeyyunThe internship was a great experience and very accommodating. I felt that I had a lot of freedom in my work and schedule while also being given guidance on certain projects. I ended up learning quite a bit at my own pace and pushing myself to meet expectations. Communication was also good between my supervisor and myself.
Roots Internship Review
December 19, 2025by: Om PatelThis was my second internship placement with Roots. I am a computer science student and the first internship was IT related but this time I was placed into a program where I was able to program and learn with a lot of freedom as I was the solo developer for the duration of my internship and I gained a lot of exposure to many things and a lot of communication from my supervisor. I also met a mentor figure who has been guiding me and helping me along my journey which I am very thankful for as well. The experience with Roots was very pleasant and I got a lot out of this opportunity.
