Twelve students yesterday left for England to join the three-week summer internship programme at Pembroke College, Oxford University.
The programme has been organised by the Abu Dhabi Education Council for a third successive year.
Mona Al Mansouri, the division manager of guidance and scholarships at the council, said the internship programme was in line with the goals of its 10-year strategic plan, which aims to develop a knowledge-based economy and improve student skills to meet the needs of the global labour market.
