Poland- Deadline May 9th

It is our pleasure to announce that General Electric and the Office of the
President of Poland launched a program that offers a unique opportunity of a
short summer visit to Poland under the sponsorship of the President of
Poland.
We would like to extend an invitation to take a part in this exciting
experience that will be a combination of political, economic and cultural
exchange as well as sightseeing. It includes visits to leading Polish and
multinational firms located in Poland and meetings with Polish government
officials and business leaders. The agenda includes also meeting President of
Poland, Andrzej Duda, meetings with various government officials, tours in
Polish factories, including GE Power, as well as sightseeing fascinating
Polish cultural places. Through this experience, we would like to promote and
enhance students’ knowledge about Poland by providing ‘on-site”
learning experiences.
The program is open to enrolled college undergraduate students that will be
graduating in 2019, rising college seniors. The recipients must be US
citizens or permanent residents and have a GPA of 3.5 out of 4.0 or higher.
We are looking for 10 beneficiaries who will arrive in Poland on June 13,
2018 and depart on June 24, 2018. Flight tickets, accommodations and all
activities while in Poland will be covered under the partnership with GE and
under the sponsorship of the President of Poland. Students are responsible to
provide documentation of health insurance coverage and should be expected to
secure pocket money for extra spending during their stay in Poland.
