Former Students Speak
- "Being an Envoy provided the opportunity to expand my network with both industry representatives and my peers. After having three internships, I learned what Architectural Engineering option I wanted to complete…as well as how company cultures vary, and the internships provided the opportunity to evaluate the cultures." — Natalie (Bryner) Miller, '09 Eng (BAE/MAE)
- "Being a Career Envoy and completing internships while I was a student played a huge role in ultimately finding a full-time position that was the right fit for me! It really helped me understand how to differentiate between companies and these experiences opened doors so I had multiple offers to choose from!" — Danielle Berman, '18 Eng (CE)
