Connect With Students

The EAP program trains the next generation of energy leaders. Each year, our program enrolls about 50 students who are pursuing MS, PhD, and other graduate degrees across campus. As such, EAP offers an unparalleled opportunity to meet a cross-section of amazing students with a shared interest in energy.

We have many opportunities for organizations to connect with these rising stars: 

  • Hiring our students and graduates
    • Enrollment and graduation in the EAP program are at historic highs. Feel free to send job or internship postings to Scott Williams for dissemination to our students and alumni, or send them directly to our Energy Jobs Google group.
  • EAP Professional Skills Seminar
    • Our professional skills seminar, a required 1-credit course, meets mid-day on Wednesdays each fall. Visitors speak to EAP students about their career pathways and share advice on skills to help you succeed in a variety of energy professions. Contact Scott Williams if you’re interested in speaking!
  • Networking trip to your location
    • Throughout the year, EAP organizes several “Delegations,” which are field trips consisting of small groups of students and faculty to visit energy organizations and engage in other professional development opportunities. If you would like to be a destination for a future Delegation, please contact us.
  • Funding scholarships or graduate research projects
    • Students have a wide array of research projects at different university departments that outside partners can support. Learn more about sponsored research and client services.
  • Serving as a client for a capstone class
