Pair undergraduate research with technology for good, cultural exploration, and a digital humanities mindset, and you've got the perfect summer internship for Champlain Computer Science & Innovation major Kim Benson ’27. 💻 ✅ Kim interned with the SOCKS program, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) . Their research, “The Integration of Māori Knowledge Into Environmental Governance,” focused on how New Zealand’s environmental policies have evolved as indigenous Māori leaders gained greater representation in government. 🌿🌏 “The appeal of SOCKS was using skills that you learn for computer science for good, because that's why I love computer science—like any science, it can be used to help the world,” says Kim. Kim’s work exemplifies the intersection of technology, culture, and critical thinking that is core to Champlain’s new Digital Humanities major. This interdisciplinary program will prepare students to tackle global issues with creativity and technical expertise.
