Faculty & Staff
Faculty at NC State are often looking for qualified students to participate in their research laboratories or other research efforts. However, at times it is difficult to find a means by which international students can get a visa to be a part of the student body at NC State if they are not already a degree seeking student at NC State. The GTI can help you make that an easier process.
Students participating in the GTI Certificate programs are eligible to take classes and/or do research. The options available are:
1) Certificate in US Culture and Higher Education (academic option)
This certificate focuses on coursework in a given field of study. It enables students to take 3-4 courses (in addition to the required GTI 401 course) in a given field. If you're interested in this option, check out the "short term study" section.
2) Internship/Research Student (full-time internship/research)
Full-time internship/research options: These programs allow overseas students at all levels to perform research or an internship or participants who are between degrees or professionals to do internships/research at NC State under the direction of an NC State faculty memeber for 2-12 months. If you're interested in this option, check out the "research/internships" section.
