How can I expect to develop and grow professionally through this internship? OCs develop important skills that enhance their impact in whatever job field they may go on to pursue. Some of the most important skill sets developed are vision-setting, planning, project/timeline management, data collection and analysis, communication, and technological.
 
How can I use and apply my studies in college within this internship? All of our OCs specialize in a certain area of their choosing within our summer institutes.
