Hear from a Marketing & Communications Alumnus
"I got to learn so much from my internship which helped me set some challenges and goals to build up my future career. I got to practice and increase my knowledge of different video editing and animation creation. I got to learn a lot of how marketing, especially content creation, works. This was a great opportunity to learn far more than what I have expected "
