Name: Meghan Ceribo
Internship, Co-op, or Research Site: Dr. Mirela Cengher's Applied Behavior Analysis Lab
Position Title: Undergraduate Research Assistant
Major or Program: Psychology B.A
Current Class Level: Senior
Work Term: Spring 2021
Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities.
I have been working with Dr. Cengher and colleagues since Summer 2020, and most of my responsibilities and expertise include literature reviews, data analyses, data collection and manuscript writing. Some of the main topics of interest include skill acquisition, teaching children how to ask informative questions, learning languages, addressing errors made while learning, and more. We are working on several literature reviews on these topics as well as planning for when we are able to experimentally utilize ethical procedures to understand the ways that children with disabilities learn.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?
As a junior, I felt really behind because of my lack of research experience. I went through the faculty page to see who had undergraduate research positions available and sent emails to the professors I was interested in working with. I also read some of their works, and was genuinely intrigued by what they have accomplished and produced. Most of the labs I interviewed already had an application I had to fill out inquiring about the classes I have taken and what I know about the overarching topic of research that each lab focuses on. And now I'm here!
What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization?
I really enjoy learning new things and sharing that knowledge with the rest of the lab. My lab colleagues and mentor are genuine friends and I have learned so much from them as well! Through this lab, not only have I gained some friends, I have also garnered more opportunities, such as the opportunity to co-found a student club and build a community for students interested in Applied Behavior Analysis, present at conferences even during online instruction, assist in publishing peer-reviewed articles, professionally grow with my colleagues, and work on my honors thesis, which is to understand potential barriers that minorities face when pursuing higher education and addressing that using Applied Behavior Analysis modalities.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
I think that being a good consumer of research (and still learning how to improve) has helped me share what I know about the literature, as well as develop critiques for it. In some of the projects that we are doing in the lab, we use what we already know not to reinvent the wheel, but to improve what has already been introduced by other researchers. A lot of our work is geared towards clinicians, teachers and researchers to help children with disabilities learn and develop skills and as we transition back to in-person learning, I know that we can help make an impact through our research.
What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?
Don't be shy - reach out to faculty! Most of the time, they are excited to share their works with you outside of the classroom setting. They are also a good resource for more resources, as they are always ready to share other other contacts, help you network, and find a lab or position that is the best fit for you.
Please provide a short reflection or quote about what you liked most about your position / earning internship credit / working with the Career Center.
"If they can't learn the way we teach, we teach the way they learn" is a quote from one of the pioneers of ABA (Ole Ivan Lovaas) that I've heard repeatedly from mentors and the more I garner knowledge about the ABA field, the more it resonates with me. Since a lot of my work has to do with how we learn things, I've come to understand and embrace the idiosyncrasies learning.

Intern of the Week: Hope Timoll for MCS!
Check out Hope's internship with Clare Boothe Luce Center!
Name: Hope Timoll
Internship, Co-op, or Research Site: Clare Boothe Luce Center for Conservative Women
Position Title: Summer Fellow
Major or Program: Media and Communication Studies
Current Class Level: Senior
Work Term: Summer 2021
Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities.
I wrote op-eds on public policy issues and current events, hosted and attended D.C. local seminars, received media training, created social media content, introduced speakers, and developed business strategies.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?
I heard of the position in late 2018 through the internet and decided to apply last Spring when I was enrolled in MCS 144. I used resources from that class to prepare my application, in addition to the Career Center’s drop-in resume sessions.
What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization?
As an intern for this organization, I can truly see how the staff wants to help other college students like me in entering the workforce. I don't feel like another intern at all. They truly want to see me put my best foot forward and are willing to assist me in any way to complete that endeavor and reach my career goals. I enjoyed having a mentor in the office to talk with and using my writing skills. The intern program is a phenomenal experience.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
I believe I made an impact on people through my various writing activities, helping them to understand certain policies and current events better.
What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?
Be proactive and be open to a flexible schedule. Every day was so different, I always had to be prepared for anything that came my way!
Please provide a short reflection or quote about what you liked most about your position / earning internship credit / working with the Career Center.
This internship helped me to understand a lot about myself and my career goals. What I learned during my time as an intern was just as important as what I am learning in the classroom. I enjoyed being able to earn academic credit while working over the summer, and the Career Center guaranteed that I was obtaining the most out of my internship by ensuring that I was up to date on various forms and I had appointments to discuss the status of the internship and learned skills that I believe will last a lifetime.

Intern of the Week: Neha Dave for Data Science!
Check out Neha's internship with BGE!
Name: Neha Dave
Internship, Co-op, or Research Site: Exelon (BGE)
Position Title: Data Science co-op
Major or Program: Data Science
Current Class Level: Master's Student
Work Term: Fall 2021
Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities.
I started my Co-op with Exelon (BGE) in Aug 2021. Exelon is the nation's leading competitive energy provider. My daily tasks as a co-op revolve around data, which is no surprise given the job title. As a Data scientist, I spend much of my time gathering, analysing, merging, shaping & looking for patterns or trends in data but in many ways and for many different reasons. I am also involved in developing and testing machine learning models & building interactive dashboards that provide real-time insight into key metrics by allowing end users to visualise, filter, and dig deeper into their data.
I try to seek to determine the questions that need answers, and then come up with different approaches to try and solve the problem. Another important aspect of my role is communicating with stakeholders and audiences who sometimes are not data experts.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?
At UMBC, opportunities can present themselves anywhere; Be vigilant.
I received an email announcement from the UMBC Career Center regarding the fall co-op opportunity at Exelon (BGE). I applied, heard back from the company after 3 weeks and was invited for a virtual interview. A committee interviewed me, asking technical questions to assess my knowledge and approach to data science.
What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization?
My favourite part about this position was the learning experience and the opportunity to join a team of highly skilled people in undertaking the project. It was an eye opening experience into the Energy domain. I got a chance to interact with diverse people and make strong connections. The culture at Exelon (BGE) is really impressive where they prioritize safety, diversity and inclusion. I get a chance to connect with managers & supervisors on a regular basis to ask questions and seek feedback. From day one, they made me feel welcomed by being accessible and making it clear that interns/co-ops are an important part of the organization.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
I've been working on a variety of Data Science use cases and presented the results to the stakeholders through interactive dashboards. The stakeholders utilize these results regularly in their daily, monthly and quarterly planning activities.
What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?
Work hard! Make a plan, start applying early and apply to as many opportunities as you can. Get your resume reviewed as soon as possible and keep it up to date always. Do not allow rejections to let you down. You learn from your experiences and the more interviews you appear for, the better you become at interviewing. I would also advise students seeking employment to network! Networking helps a lot. Be sure to make those connections and communicate with others. Also, the Career Center is a great tool to help jump start your career, so take advantage of those resources. Attending the Career Center events and workshops definitely helps.
Please provide a short reflection or quote about what you liked most about your position / earning internship credit / working with the Career Center.
The Career Center has been really supportive. I've reached out to them for resume review, interview tips and career advice and they've always helped with best suggestions and ideas. Great job, Career Center! Thank you.
