UW-Green Bay Internship Helps Undergrad Choose a Career Path

Gaining hands-on experiences helped Sam, a biology major at UW-Green Bay, determine her career path. During her freshwater science internship with the Stream Team, Sam participated in water monitoring and lab analysis, and learned how she could play a role in improving the environment.

Another one of Sam’s hands-on experiences at UW-Green Bay involved serving as the coordinator for the High School Freshwater Summer Scholars Program, which gave her a leadership role working with high school students. The program is one of the K-12 outreach efforts supported by Educators and Students Rise to Freshwater Challenges, which UW-Green Bay developed with funding from the Freshwater Collaborative of Wisconsin.
