Reach Funding 2009

What is Reach Funding 2009?

Reach Internship Funds provide monetary support for undergraduates who obtain internship opportunities to investigate career options, further develop skills and link classroom learning to the world of work. These funds assist with the creation of internships which would otherwise be unavailable; enabling students to participate in career related experiences, regardless of financial constraints. Reach Funds are available thanks to the generous gifts of University of Rochester friends and alumni who believe in the importance of experiential opportunities.
