Spotlight: Pragya M


Here's a little blurb from one of our members who was away from Davis last quarter!:

Last Spring Quarter, I had the opportunity to live, learn, and intern at the nation’s capital as a participant of the Davis Washington Program. During my time in Washington DC, I interned at the National Education Association, the largest teacher’s union in the country. As an intern, I was able to attend educational policy meetings, lobby congress, work on specific projects, and network with professionals who shared the same passion for education. My time in DC has given me valuable work experience and has given me direction in my career goals after college.

If you are interested participating, please come talk to me! I am a student advisor for the Washington Program and would gladly help you out!!

“Living, learning and interning in DC has helped me apply what I was learning at UC Davis to real life work in the nation’s capital. The city is full of life and offers many opportunities for everyone. The ten weeks I spent in DC were amazing and I strongly encourage students to apply and experience this incredible program for themselves.” – Pragya Mathur, senior.
