Brittany Bodden, who attended the University College of the Cayman Islands, interned with our Fund of
Funds Department. Brittany is now a scholarship recipient attending Florida Atlantic University pursuing her
Bachelors of Science Degree in Forensic Accounting. Brittany stated, “I always learn something new whenever
I work at MUFG. I continuously utilize my communication and organization skills, and I get to build on
prior knowledge that I acquired from my last internship. Additionally, the people at MUFG are delightful and
encouraging. The teams that I work with are always happy to see me, and asking when I can come back. The
fact that they are willing to take the time out to pass their knowledge onto me shows that they care about their
interns. MUFG has many role models and I would recommend any young person interested in the financial
sector to apply for this internship.”
