Hannah Darr completes an internship in Africa

2014 Dec 12

Hannah Darr gained practical experience while making a difference in Africa through a summer internship. While there, Darr identified strengths of childhood and maternal nutrition programs in rural Uganda.

The internship was coordinated through the Global Resource Systems (GRS) program in Iowa State University's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. GRS international internships are designed as independent projects completed abroad that teach professional skills that can be applied in careers at home or around the world.

In addition to international internships, many students in Global Resource Systems and other majors in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences gain a global perspective through study abroad. This year, students in the college were able to choose courses on all seven continents.
