WHY TSM Silicon Valley

Motivation for TSM:
TSM is not something that will always be offered to me. After university graduation, there will be no such thing as "TSM". I had never went on a study trip before. Hence, I will like to take this opportunity and go for at least a study trip before I graduate and stepping into the working industry.

Why Silicon Valley:
Silicon Valley is known for it's IT industries. Since I'm studying IT and going to work in the IT industry, it will be a very good exposure for me to visit Silicon Valley and learn how each famous IT company works!


INTERNSHIP Opportunities

Companies like Apple, Google & Facebook interests me a lot.
I always wonder how Apple is manage to grab the attention of so many people into buying their products! I am also curious on how Google, as a search engine in the early days, was able to acquire a lot of companies now. I will also like to know how Facebook was able to capture and retain users' attention!


STARTING a Business

Type of business I'm interested in:

  • Social Media
  • IT Solutions
  • IT Security

Plans in Starting a Business:
Giving IT solutions for business could be a possible direction that I'm going towards to. Of course, I will need a lot of experience before starting a business like this. I must be knowledgeable before giving advices to others.
