"The GREAT Program is one that I suggest all engineering students become involved in. Everyone has an idea of what to do when meeting future employers, but the GREAT Program helped me finalize some of the my ideas and guided me with great pointers and connections. If it wasn't for GREAT, I would not have the amazing internship that I do today with a great opportunity for my future." -- Lynsie, PSU'18, Former G.R.E.A.T. Intern and current employee at Siemens
