What is Shadowship?
A Shadowship is a short version of an internship with a difference that students don't yet
know what they want to study but are willing to explore different careers. In other words,
it is a snapshot of a day at the office aimed to help students understand the responsibilities
and daily tasks of a professional in the field. Shadowship provides exciting reasons why students
should stay in school andcreates a critical link between education and success.
