Nike, Cummins, and Celanese are a just a handful of companies that come to BYU primarily looking for international students and students who are fluent in a foreign language. The companies sponsor internationals and have their eye on students who come from or have a language skill from Brazil, Russia, China, and India.
The CEO of Celanese is a BYU graduate and considers BYU a core school along with Harvard, Darden, and Texas. This year 5 of the 12 internship offers were extended to BYU students, three of which were internationals.
Cummins has a long relationship with BYU and loves to take students from the BRIC countries. Three international students accepted offers. Also, U.S. students who have a foreign language skill and a great understanding of the culture are seen as a big plus.
Nike is a new edition to BYU. The company has it eye on the BYU MBA program because Brazil is becoming a big target for the company and BYU has many Brazilian nationals and U.S. students who speak the language and understand the culture.
