A pillar of our mission is to prepare and equip students to engage in the challenges of the world. Once students enter college – sometimes even before – they begin to explore the questions of what courses they want to take, what major they want to focus on, and what degree they want to walk away with. Students spend hours considering what careers, passions, internships, fields to pursue, and how their studies and degrees might help them get there.

Jinamai Joseph is a student at Southeastern University studying Accounting with a minor in Data Analytics and Information Systems. For eight weeks, Jinamai got to live in a neighborhood of Rome called Pigneto and intern with People's University of Torpignattara. In her role, she focused on marketing the Torpignattara neighborhood, encouraging visitors and tourists to experience more than just the recognizable Centro Storico (historic downtown of Rome) and dive deeper into the rich culture that exists throughout the city in areas like Torpignattara.
