This summer, Noah Rosenfeld ’28, a statistics and psychology double major, had an internship with the Allentown Environmental Advisory Council. The experience is part of the Office of Community Engagement’s Community Internship Program, which offers grant-funded stipends to students interested in working with community organizations.

"I knew I was interested in a career related to research after conducting research with the psychology department," Rosenfeld says. "I then worked with the Career Center to narrow my focus, and through that process, I discovered I wanted to work somewhere within the political sphere. This past semester, I started working for the Muhlenberg College Institute of Public Opinion, where I affirmed I really enjoyed political research."
