Building on formal education, ASG also encourages and facilitates internships with programs like J1 visa or OPT (Optional Practical Training), which is available to any international student on an F1 visa who has recently graduated from an American university with an Associate’s, Bachelor’s, or Master’s degree, as well as doctoral program graduates. This is especially valuable for those seeking to learn soft skills and valuable experience in various aspects of working in an organization such as project management, leadership, and handling the random challenges that can arise on any given day.
