“Kristine was selected from over 100 students for an internship with the IAESTE United States Program. This is a competitive program which matches students in the technical fields with work experiences abroad. Kristine showed both academic and technical merit, as well as the soft skills needed to succeed in an international internship. It is our pleasure to have Kristine as an alum of our program.”
