I have
used my liberal arts education in my internship tremendously. By integrating my
knowledge that I have learned through my entrepreneurship classes, I have
really exceeded at taking responsibility and figuring out the best way to do
things during my internship this summer. My sociology classes at Michigan let
me look at patterns in the way people interact this summer at my internship,
and in turn allowed me to gauge myself accordingly and fit in really fast here.
My sociology classes also gave me insight on how to market to different people,
age groups, sexes, etc. I feel very thankful to go to a school as amazing as
the University of Michigan to learn such amazing skills that I will be able to
take with me throughout life.
I was
surprised at how much I loved my internship this summer. At first, I thought it
would only be a resume builder and a money maker. However, as the summer
progressed I realized quickly that I would soon call this place my home and the
people here would be family. As my internship is ending I feel a bittersweet
emotion inside me. I am so thankful for this experience, yet so sad to leave. I
know that I will keep in touch with everyone here, and come back to visit as
often as possible.
It is so nice that your education helped prepare you and settle in nicely for your internship. Its great that you enjoyed your internship and coworkers so much.
ReplyDeleteI also thought that it would just be a job opportunity for me. I never imagined how connected I would get to the people, places, and things that would come along with it. I'm glad to hear you plan on keeping in touch with everyone there. I plan on doing the same!
