Internships

EBP Intern at Aronson LLC in Rockville, MD

Do you feel that Champlain has prepared you for the professional world?

Yeah, I feel that Champlain is preparing me for the professional world. They do a good job of matching students with internships. School can teach you the basics, but when you get on the job, that’s when you really start learning.

What do you like about Champlain’s Upside-down curriculum?

The Upside-Down Curriculum gets students involved in their major in their first year in college. It really puts you ahead of the curve, especially when you’re seeking internships. It allows you to get internships earlier than students from other colleges would be able to, because you get into your major in your first year. And if your major ends up not being what you’re looking for, at least you know that in your first year rather than your third.

What will you miss most about Champlain?

The thing I’m going to miss most about Champlain are the people that I’ve met here. At Champlain, it’s been very easy to meet great people. Through the friends that I’ve made, I’ve really blossomed from the person that I was in high school to the person I am now.
