The study found that the population of thestudent body existed that had not experienced a natural disaster and were unaware of its impactseither on a personal or familial basis. Further, the majority of the responding students felt that theirmajor(s) and universities did not prepare them in terms of handling natural disasters and extremeweather events. Finally, a correlation was found between the location students live and a desire forknowledge about extreme weather events at

Diambra et al.’s [33] study show that new information, newpeople, new environment, and new tasks may cause stress to the interns. Woo et al.

did not experience changes during their internships during the summerof 2020. Although from an economic perspective, PPE might appear to be non-consequential, forconstruction, the additional PPE is an additional cost. More importantly, the difficulty in findingwork that was identified is quite essential. This finding indicates that internships during times ofeconomic change, whether sudden or due to an ongoing recession, affect students. Additionalresearch is required to determine if all recessions affect internships, as they are often required aspart of graduation requirements.References[1] Barr, A., Turner, S.E. and Danziger, S.(2013).
