UoPeople is pleased to announce a partnership with Hewlett Packard (HP), which provides UoPeople students the ability to apply for online research internships to work with the HP Catalyst Initiative – a global network of consortia that brings together leading educational institutions and NGOs. Select UoPeople students who are chosen to intern with HP will work with the consortia on the research and results of various projects within education, technology and health.
Gabi Zedlmayer, VP, Office of Global Social Innovation, HP explains that “HP has a longstanding commitment to global citizenship and education, and we strongly believe in the work UoPeople is doing to democratize higher education. By educating the underserved through online classrooms, UoPeople exemplifies the innovative use of technology, and we are thrilled to contribute to this effort by welcoming UoPeople in to the consortia.”
Designed to prepare underprivileged youth for the world economy, this is truly an important opportunity for our students. UoPeople seeks not only to educate students, but also to help them improve their job prospects. Through the internships, students will gain valuable work experience with a global organization like HP, helping to fulfil our ultimate mission.
We are proud to have this opportunity for our students, as well as the recognition of the aptitude and excellence of our students by Hewlett Packard. We look forward to hearing more about the assistance our students will provide HP in making great leaps forward in education, technology and health.
Please join us in celebrating our new HP partnership and this exciting internship opportunity for students by letting us know your thoughts and comments.

salam, wow , it looks like a really great opportunity for all to step on best updated technology, but viewing my age , I’m afraid I’ll be inhibited by age limits
This is a wonderful opportunity for Uopeople students. I have always been thinking of how students in such a University will have the chance of putting the knowledge acquired into practice. I think this partnership makes Uopeople complete in training students who can be competitive in the job market, a quality which is usually lacking with most online graduates.As a student of this great institution , it will be a great opportunity for me to do my internship with Hewlett Packard. I am seriously looking forward to that.
Oh no!!! I am blown up already! Today is a of JOY. I can just imagine how mighty HP Internship will look on my CV! Up UoPeople!!! Congrat peers! Thanks to HP for this great and visionary support. Thank you Mr. Reshef and every Uopeople leadership team for your unrelenting effort toward creating a rich and enviable future for us- the less privilege youths. God bless you all!

A million smiley faces to Hewlett Packard for joining with the University of the People!
🙂
This is only the beginning for UO People!
Other organizations and institutions, including governments of nations, should step in, like HP has done, and open their doors to University of the People! I would like to use this opportunity to also encourage United Nations, Commonwealth, UNESCO, and other international organizations to open their doors to students of UO People in the third world countries, especially in Africa. This will encourage others to join UO People, and receive the best education of their dream, which they otherwise would not be able to acquire.
University of the People is for real!
Thank you.
I’m speechless!
I’m highly motivated now, even more then before, and diligent to succeed. I will surely take this wonderful opportunity when the time comes.
What a great day for all of us! 🙂
P.S. Dear Mr. Reshef, you spoiled us with an exhilarating rush of good news lately. What’s next? It can’t be better than that, can it? 🙂
God realy is great i shall cherish this opportunity and make sure i reach high in education in order for me to help others. I am currently incouraging my friends to take this life time opportunity while it lasts.
