Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc.

The overall educational experience was excellent. The program was intensive enough to help me learn a lot while still maintaining a supportive and enjoyable atmosphere. I gained practical backend development experience, improved my communication skills, and learned how to work in an international environment. The company provided good resources, guidance, and opportunities to grow both technically and personally.

On-site administration of your program

The administration and coordination were excellent throughout the entire internship. Everyone was organized, supportive, and always ready to help whenever needed. Communication regarding schedules, activities, and expectations was clear and timely. I always felt welcomed and well taken care of.

How satisfied were you with your living arrangements?

My living arrangements were comfortable and convenient. The location made it easy to commute and adapt to daily life in Vietnam. Overall, I was satisfied with the housing experience and felt safe and comfortable during my stay.

I really enjoyed the food in Vietnam. There were many delicious and affordable options, and trying local dishes became one of my favorite parts of the experience. It was also exciting to learn more about Vietnamese culture through food.

How integrated did you feel with the local culture?

I felt very integrated into the local culture. My coworkers and the people around me were friendly, welcoming, and patient despite language differences. I even learned some Vietnamese during my stay, which made the experience even more meaningful. The cultural exchange aspect of the internship was one of the best parts for me.

How well were health issues addressed during the program?

Fortunately, I did not experience any major health issues during the program. However, I felt that healthcare services were accessible if needed, and the program coordinators were supportive and ready to assist. I did not require any special vaccines specifically for this program, and overall I felt safe and well-supported regarding health matters.

I felt very safe during my time in the host city. The environment was friendly, and I did not experience any safety-related incidents. My advice for future students would simply be to stay aware of traffic conditions and local transportation, especially when crossing busy streets for the first time. Overall, I had a very positive and safe experience.

Absolutely. This program gave me not only technical experience but also personal growth, cultural exchange, and unforgettable memories. I met amazing people, improved my communication skills, gained confidence working in an international environment, and felt genuinely welcomed by the company and my coworkers. It was one of the most meaningful experiences I have ever had.

Living on a student budget in Vietnam was actually much easier than I expected. Food, transportation, and daily necessities were generally affordable, and there were many budget-friendly options available near the office and accommodation. I was able to enjoy my experience comfortably without spending too much money.

• What I liked most was the people and the working environment. Everyone was kind, supportive, and welcoming from the very beginning. My mentor and coworkers always encouraged me and made me feel included. I also loved the cultural exchange aspect of the program because it allowed me to experience Vietnam beyond just work. It truly felt like being part of a family rather than simply joining a company.

• I think the program could be improved by offering more diversity in technical roles and projects. The internship was mainly backend-focused, so it would be great if future participants could also explore frontend, mobile, AI, QA, or full-stack opportunities depending on their interests. Additionally, reducing the workload of mentors during internship periods could allow them to spend even more time guiding interns.
