  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • The internship showed me so many different aspects of the types of career and industries I may choose to pursue in the future. The experience has been absolutely invaluable to me and my future and I would recommend the programme to all students! Plus, it is open to both 1st and 2nd year students!
