Does anyone have ideas for additional professional advancement opportunities during the summer? Summer training is only a month, and I would like to take advantage of the rest of the summer.
Your unit might know of some specific Navy opportunities. What about Project Go? Learn a language over the summer in a different country. All paid for by the DoD.
DS did an internship at a Navy research facility outside DC between his 3c and 2c years. It was a great experience for him. This internship was not limited to ROTC, but aligned with his major. He learned about the opportunity from his academic advisor for his major I believe. Just be aware, an internship could conflict with summer cruise. In DS' case, he received a waiver for his summer cruise. He was hoping to do both, but ended up not doing summer cruise that year.
