Aquatics administrator and recreation coordinator for Republic Parks & Recreation
“I would 1,000% recommend this program. My junior year, my professor told me there was an aquatics position open in Republic and I should apply. I thought it would be good interview practice. I got the job!
“I started working full time while being a student. With this degree we have to do a 400-hour internship. I did it while working for Republic and they let me count those hours. A strength of this program is my classes were geared toward what I would be doing in the real world.”
