EPIC is continuing their Career Series, with their first information session coming up on October 12th. Students interested in energy, the environment, and climate change but unsure about their career options may find this virtual career series helpful. EPIC is hosting a virtual career series with young UChicago alumni to provide UChicago students with insight into the range of opportunities and what it’s like to work in these positions. Alumni will share insights into their day-to-day lives, how they got to where they are, and what they wish they knew when they were UChicago students. Join us as we welcome Harris Public Policy ’20 graduate Sushmita Singha, Climate Risk and Energy Consultant at the World Bank.

The session will take place on Zoom, October 12th, 12:30pm-1:30pm CT. Register here to learn from Sushmita Singha, a Climate Risk and Energy Consultant at the World Bank Headquarters, D.C.
