Oregon State University is a prominent research institution in the US, with the College of Forestry being one of the smaller faculties on campus. To enhance the college’s international reach, we launched a pilot programme called Branching Borders, which offers a fully funded internship opportunity for students. In 2024, our college invited 10 universities to participate, receiving 170 applications. This poster presents the story so far.
