The Commission has several student program options aimed at providing a rewarding work experience for students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees.
These programs are focused on inspiring and stimulating the next generation of energy industry leaders through challenging project assignments. Students work in the Program Offices throughout the Commission, providing and inside look into the operations of a Federal agency and networking opportunities with Commission leaders. Students work in program areas alongside other employees with similar professional and academic backgrounds.
