The Perreault Fellows Program, an international internship program funded by an endowment given by Paul and Beverly Perreault, is entering its third year at Penn State. The Perreaults first began the program in 2019, around the same time that they donated funding for the Veterans Center at Penn State. CSL Behring, the company of which Paul Perreault is CEO, donated funds for the cutting-edge CSL Fermentation Lab on campus. The company was honored as Penn State’s corporate partner of the year in 2019.
The Perreault Fellows Program is a competitive global leadership and internship program that prepares students from multiple disciplines for personal and professional excellence through learning in cross-cultural leadership, ethics, service, personal mentoring, and an internship abroad related to the betterment of the human condition.
Each year, the program seeks to enroll a diverse group of Penn State undergraduates in a two-year, co-curricular program, the centerpiece of which is an internship abroad during the summer semester.
The program prepares students for global leadership through participation in intercultural learning opportunities, a workshop through the Rock Ethics Institute, mandatory service, and a presentation on their learning outcomes to the provost’s Global Advisory Council.
