The Future Leaders Program kicked off with a bang this week! Students and parents joined Ms. Emma Su and Ms. Kai Wei Chiu to learn about the amazing internship opportunities provided by our community partners. The FLP is all about hands-on experience, exploring interests, and developing career skills in various fields of interest from the arts, engineering, and medicine, to hospitality, city government and more. This fall and winter, students will have the chance to dive into the business and marketing world with the 高雄全家海神隊 Kaohsiung Aquas, engage in educational research with 國立中山大學 National Sun Yat-sen University（NSYSU）, or develop zoology skills at the Shou Shan Zoo 壽山動物園. Additional opportunities include internships with Jolab 佐研院, 舊振南 JIU ZHEN NAN, and Brogent Technologies Inc. to name a few. A BIG thank you to our 17 incredible partners for offering such a diverse range of work experiences for our Dragons to explore! #KASDragons #FutureLeaders #ExperientialLearning #InternshipProgram #CommunityPartners #Kaohsiung
