Testimonials from Past NPP Interns
My internship with NPP allowed me to learn a lot about working with people, in the industry and the overall process of how an operation like this works. The experience really helped me to decide on some of career goals as well and enabled me to look at the big picture.
-Alicia Gettel, Longmont CO,
student at Kansas State University
I learned all phases of the swine industry and how to work as team at NPP. The experience really opened my eyes to the industry. I want to be a pathologist and this experience has really helped to get me on the right track to achieving that personal goal of mine. Overall, it is the little things that make a huge difference.
- Natasha Knapp, Woodward IA,
student at Iowa State University
After completing my internship at NPP, I learned that the swine industry was not what I thought it was. Now I know that I want to be a large animal vet and work with pigs. I really enjoyed the learning opportunities we had this off the farm such as the necropsy clinic and sow summit meetings. The people at NPP were really good and very accepting of the interns.
-Shayleen Harrison, Clarence IA,
student at Iowa State University
I learned a lot about the swine industry. It was a great hands-on experience about what really goes on in a modern swine facility. I had the opportunity to talk to people everyday that live the industry and learn what works and is practical.
