How did you prepare for your stay abroad?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Initially, you should search for a suitable city and university in the US where you plan to conduct your research. Then, seek out professors who have conducted research similar to your intended project and reach out to them via email. It is recommended to contact at least 10 professors, as some may not respond to your initial email. If necessary, you can also try calling them and leaving a message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-accent=\"true\" data-tag=\"h5\" data-style-level=\"\">What practical arrangements have you made before the exchange?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have found a suitable professor, you should request an invitation letter from them. The professor will then contact the international office of the host university, who will send you a DS-2019 form via post from the US after you have paid the necessary admission fees. You will also need to pay for your SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System) fee. Once you have received your DS-2019 form, you can then apply for your visa online. As for your health insurance, I would recommend the International Student Insurance program offered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isoa.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.isoa.org\/<\/a>. It is more convenient and affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-accent=\"true\" data-tag=\"h5\" data-style-level=\"\">How high were the living costs?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rent in a dorm in a 4 square meter room: 1500$\/mo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Food: 800$ \/mo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ovl-full-width-image ovl-fullWidthImage\" data-block=\"fullwidthimage\" data-height=\"350px\" data-caption=\"\" data-showcaption=\"false\" data-objectfit=\"cover\" data-use-aspect-ratio=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ovl-fullWidthImage__image\" style=\"object-position:48% 88%\" src=\"https:\/\/media-hp.technikum-wien.at\/media\/20230906141753\/Zimmer-Pouria.jpg\" alt=\"\" objectposition=\"48% 88%\"\/><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-accent=\"true\" data-tag=\"h5\" data-style-level=\"\">How would you describe the internship?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Columbia University has excellent research facilities that provide state-of-the-art resources for scholars.

abroad can expose individuals to diverse cultures, customs, and languages, which can foster cultural sensitivity and understanding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Adaptability<\/strong>: Living and studying in a new environment can require individuals to be flexible, adaptable, and able to navigate unfamiliar situations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Independence<\/strong>: Studying abroad often involves living independently, managing finances, and navigating day-to-day life in a new place, which can foster independence and self-reliance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Language proficiency<\/strong>: Studying abroad in a foreign language can help individuals improve their language proficiency and communication skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Global perspective<\/strong>: Studying abroad can provide a broader global perspective on
