Attention undergraduates:

We have a separate and unique opportunity for you. If you are an undergrad who is interested in professional development and research opportunities abroad, we encourage you to apply to the CALS Global Fellows Program. TCI is partnering with the Global Fellows Program to host undergraduate internships in India. This application and recruitment process is different from the Tata-Cornell Summer Internship Program, as it is managed through the CALS Global Fellows office. Undergrads interested in interning with TCI should apply here and select the Tata Global Fellows option in your list of preferences. This application is due on Tuesday, February 6th.
