FCD Students Attitudes and Behaviors Survey Report Automation

Kate Hansen

My internship was at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation Butler Center for Research. As part of my internship, I was tasked with developing an automation procedure for FCD's Students Attitudes and Behaviors Survey (SABS) report. The SABS report offers insights into 6th-12th graders drug use as well as their perceptions of the drug use of their peers. I used Microsoft VBA for the development of these automation strategies and successfully implemented them for 23 of the 98 pages of the SABS report. The automation strategies I developed will provide a foundation for the Butler Center for Research to continue this work.



       Internship Experience at KLA

Emily Vodovnik



This past summer I had an opportunity to work as an intern for a company called KLA. KLA develops equipment and services for the electronics industry. I was able to work from home for this internship. I used Python and a few other programs for this internship. I had to manage/manipulate restricted data and create visualizations that were used to make improvements and save money for KLA. This internship was a great introduction into the professional world, and I enjoyed applying what I’ve learned in school.
