Name: Varshini Rao
Pronouns: she/her
Semester of Internship: Summer 2023
Major: Computer/Information Technology
Current Class Level: Master’s Student
This semester I completed a(n)...: Internship
Internship, Co-op, or Research Site (Company/Organization Name): Constellation Energy
Location of the Organization (City, State): Baltimore, Maryland
Title of position: Summer intern in AMP-IT. Front-end developer and data analyst.
Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities:
During my internship, I was tasked with analyzing user usage patterns on a specific webpage, with the goal of enhancing the user experience through interface improvements. My day-to-day responsibilities primarily revolved around understanding user behavior, ideating potential UI changes, and implementing these improvements.
I started by collecting and analyzing data on how users interacted with the webpage, identifying pain points, and areas that needed improvement. I then brainstormed ideas to make the webpage more user-friendly, focusing on easier navigation and comfortable browsing, including efficient result filtering.
One of my key tasks was to create a mock-up presentation that showcased the proposed UI changes. To ensure that the changes would align with the needs of the end-users, I arranged meetings with both the IT and business teams. These teams were the primary users of the webpage, and their input was crucial in the decision-making process.
During these meetings, I presented my ideas and mock-ups, seeking feedback and insights from the teams. Through collaboration and open communication, we collectively shortlisted upgrades that resonated with both teams.
Once the changes were approved, I leveraged my front-end UI development skills to implement these modifications to the webpage. This phase involved coding in HTML, CSS, Javascript, and C# to bring the proposed improvements to life.
In summary, my internship experience was a dynamic process of data analysis, ideation, collaboration, and hands-on implementation. It provided me with a comprehensive understanding of user-centric design and the importance of bridging the gap between technical and business teams to create effective solutions.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?
I looked through internship openings on numerous platforms until I found this one on the company's website, where I then submitted my application. They looked over my application and invited me in for an interview.
What resources did you use to find your current experience?
LinkedIn or other social media
What have you enjoyed the most about your position and organization?
What I've enjoyed most about my position and the organization is the opportunity to make a tangible impact. Being entrusted with the task of analyzing user habits and improving the webpage's interface has been incredibly rewarding. It's fulfilling to see how small changes can lead to a smoother and more enjoyable user experience.
Moreover, the collaborative environment within the organization has been a standout aspect. Working closely with both the IT and business teams allowed me to gain insights from diverse perspectives. The open exchange of ideas and feedback fostered a sense of camaraderie, making the entire process not only productive but also enjoyable.
Overall, the combination of meaningful work and a supportive organizational culture has made my internship experience both enriching and fulfilling.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
I believe I've made a meaningful impact through my work by enhancing the user experience of the webpage. By analyzing user habits and implementing user-friendly interface changes, I have contributed to making the web page more accessible and efficient for its users. This has likely led to increased user satisfaction, improved navigation, and a smoother browsing experience.
Moreover, by actively involving both the IT and business teams in the decision-making process, I've helped bridge the gap between technical and non-technical stakeholders. This collaborative approach not only ensured that the changes met the actual needs of the end-users but also fostered better communication and understanding between different departments within the organization.
In summary, I believe my work has contributed to improving user satisfaction and facilitating effective cross-team collaboration, ultimately making a positive impact on the organization as a whole.
What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?
I would offer the following advice to a fellow student seeking an internship or similar experience:
- Start Early: Begin your internship search well in advance. Many organizations have application deadlines, and the competition can be fierce. Starting early allows you to explore a wider range of opportunities.
- Research Thoroughly: Understand the industry and companies you're interested in. Research their culture, values, and the type of work they do. Tailor your applications to align with their specific needs and mission.
- Build a Strong Resume and Cover Letter: Your resume and cover letter are your first impression. Make sure they are well-structured, highlight relevant skills and experiences, and are tailored to the internship you're applying for.
- Stay Professional: Once you secure an internship, maintain professionalism. Be punctual, take initiative, communicate effectively, and seek opportunities to learn and contribute.
- Be Open-Minded: Be open to internships that might not seem directly related to your major. Skills like communication, teamwork, and problem-solving are transferable and valuable in any field.
Please provide a short reflection or quote about what you liked most about your position / earning internship credit / working with the Career Center.
Working with the Career Center was a game-changer for me. It's where I discovered the power of guidance and support in shaping my career path. The insights and resources they provided helped me land my dream internship, where I honed my skills and gained real-world experience. The best part was seeing how classroom learning seamlessly blended with hands-on work. It reaffirmed my belief that education meets its true purpose when it bridges the gap between theory and practice. My journey wouldn't have been this rewarding without the Career Center's unwavering assistance. They transformed ambition into achievement.

Celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month
Celebration, Upcoming Events, & More!
September 15th to October 15th is National Hispanic Heritage Month. Throughout this time, i3b, UMBC and country celebrates the important contributions, heritage, and culture of all Hispanic and Latinos in the United States.
Honoring our Hispanic/Latin(e/x) community and their influence on our country, we recognize culture and traditions that have shaped all of our communities. We impart to all at UMBC to partake in understanding and uplifting the stories, experiences, passions, love, and history of our Hispanic/Latin(e/x) community. Hispanic Heritage Month further celebrates the traditions, cultures, families, love, and service all Hispanic and Latin(e/x) folks.
History of Hispanic Heritage Month
Beginning on September 15th, Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates the anniversary of independence of the Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua, dating back to 1968. Additionally, Mexico, Chile, and Belize also celebrate their independence days during this period with Día de la Raza on October 12th.
The term Hispanic, referring to the racial and ethnic groups of folks from hisphanophone (Spanish Speaking) countries, that were historically colonized by Spain. This term is inclusive to those of Spanish origin. The term Latino, excludes Spain, but includes non-Spanish speaking Latin American countries such as Belize, Brazil, Guyana, and Haiti. Some folks may have ethnic roots from Latin America, and may use either, neither, or both Hispanic and/or Latino.
In the month of September and October, i3b is partnering on events in celebration of our Hispanic/Latin(e/x) communities.

UMBC ranks among the best in undergraduate resesarch
#27 in U.S. News and World Report
UMBC continues to show its strengths in undergraduate research, innovation, value, teaching programs, and several other areas highlighted in the 2023–24 U.S. News and World Report Best Colleges undergraduate rankings. This year, the university moved up in the national rankings in numerous categories, showcasing UMBC’s growth in several key areas.
The 2023–24 U.S. News college rankings, released today, were calculated using 19 key measures of academic quality, evaluating nearly 1,500 four-year bachelor’s degree-granting institutions in the country. For the second consecutive year, UMBC has moved up several slots on the list of Best National Universities (tied at #133). UMBC also climbed 38 slots in the category of best value schools, coming in at #69 nationally.
The university remains a leader in undergraduate teaching programs, ranking #12 nationally. UMBC also maintains its longstanding position as one of the nation’s most innovative universities, ranking #15 this year.
Since receiving a Research 1 Carnegie designation in 2022, UMBC has advanced nearly 20 slots in the undergraduate research and creative projects rankings, now nationally ranked at #27. Those research efforts culminated in UMBC students receiving prestigious Goldwater and Gates Cambridge scholarship awards within the last year.
“This impressive jump shows that internal and external stakeholders have really taken notice of the incredible work that our undergraduates are engaged in,” says April Householder ’95, visual and performing arts, UMBC’s director of undergraduate research and prestigious scholarships. “The faculty and staff at UMBC nurture a culture of research across all disciplines, supporting academic excellence from the humanities to the sciences.”
