BUEN
VECINO INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
Administered
by the
United States-Mexico
Cultural and Educational Foundation
BACKGROUND
In 1995, the United
States-Mexico Chamber of Commerce (USMCOC) created the Buen Vecino
Internship Program (BVIP), a binational student exchange program
aimed to providing students with three unique experiences:
-
An overview of
U.S.-Mexico business relations through contact with the USMCOC.
-
Knowledge of a
specific industry by serving as unpaid interns in USMCOC corporate
member offices.
-
And exposure to
another culture by living with a host family.
To date 200 students
have participated in the Buen Vecino Internship Program and we are
ready to start the session for the year 2002.
