The Cal Energy Corps Virtual Reception was held on Tuesday, Sept. 28, giving this year’s student interns an opportunity to present their research conducted throughout the summer-long program.
Cal Energy Corps interns have been hard at work both in-person and remotely with their host organizations! As the 2021 program draws to a close, they have officially wrapped up their projects and tasks. Let’s take one last look at the work some of our interns accomplished.
