ATHENS — An environmental resource science major, Diamond Clark said that her Winegrowers of Georgia internship has helped her understand how environmental science and agriculture intertwine.
When students begin seeking internships, they look forward to gaining first-hand experience in their chosen fields and seek opportunities that will help further their education and develop future job skills. Some may get stuck making coffee, sorting files or answering phones, but for three University of Georgia interns, the summer internship experience has been much more engaging.
