Internships
Internships have been a key part of the programs in ABE since 1969 long before being “en vogue.” Internship experiences are becoming more and more important in the job market as employers use internships as a way to identify future employees. Some of our students have even returned to Juniata with full time offers of employment from their internship supervisors
Current Internships:
Travis Sumner (08) interned with Congressman Bill Shuster in Washington, DC. Travis had a variety of tasks including, legislative research, reporting, and constituent correspondence. In addition to his many duties, Travis had some “perks.” One was attending the Republicans President Dinner where meet the top republican officials in the nation. This congressional internship opened to another internship opportunity with MasterCard. This current internship has Travis researching financial services and speaking to campuses on credit responsibility.
