EPSCoR Undergraduate Career Panel and Send-off Dinner

On Tuesday, August 4, the VT EPSCoR CWDD hosted a career panel and send-off dinner for the EPSCoR interns and mentors. The evening began with a panel of four speakers who shared their stories of college majors, jobs, and tips on building a successful and rewarding career path. The speakers were Keith Macchione, Project Engineer for Keurig Green Mountain, Tina Heath, District Wetlands Ecologist for the State of Vermont, Elise Schadler, Community Outreach Professional for Vermont Urban and Community Forestry, and Bonnie Waniger, Executive Director of the Central Vermont Regional Planning Commission. They answered questions and offered advice to the interns. The EPSCoR mentors then joined the group for a final dinner to celebrate a successful internship. Congratulations to everyone who participated in EPSCoR research this summer!
