TAMPA, Fla.–A branch of USF FCU opening on the campus of the University of South Florida will be completely run by students as part of a partnership with the USF Muma College of Business.
The branch will be located inside the USF Marshall Student Center.
According to USF FCU, six students will become part-time employees as part of the program. No promises are being made about full-time employment once the internship expires.
“It will be one of the first credit unions on a university campus to offer students a paid internship opportunity while they earn course credit for their work and learning experiences,” said USF FCU CEO Richard Skaggs in a released statement.
USF FCU said the program will run for three years, with students beginning in their sophomore year. They will be exposed to accounting and finance, marketing, operations and management.
