“During my lab internship with Lakes Environmental Association for the past two summers, I have been working on total phosphorus and chlorophyll analysis on the 40 lakes in LEA’s service area. I have done some field work including water sampling and buoy maintenance. My chemistry classes have helped to prepare me very well for this internship, especially Dr. Lesher’s Analytical Chemistry course. Many of the concepts and methods I learned in that course are directly applicable to the work I am doing during the summer. Having hands-on experiences in labs prior to my internship has provided me with many valuable skills.”
