🌟 Thrilled to share my experience as a DOE Scholar supporting the Justice40 initiative! 🌟 As a rising junior double majoring in economics and mathematics at the University of Maryland, College Park, this summer has been incredibly rewarding. I have been working on creating a relational database of Justice40 data by integrating multiple datasets into an database, focused on ensuring that 40% of climate investment benefits reach disadvantaged communities. In addition to this, I've reached out to utility companies and public service commissions across the nation to gather data on utility shutoffs and arrearage information. This effort aligns with the EIA-EJE partnership to explore utility shutoff payback clauses. With many states having halted shutoffs during COVID-19, customers are now facing large bills. Our goal is to find data that shows the impact of these moratoria on disadvantaged communities. We’re exploring state energy offices, federal agencies, and university studies to understand this issue better. I’ve also been utilizing Microsoft Office to design and analyze documentation, presentations, and visualizations to support our reports. This internship has provided me with valuable skills in data analysis, statistical reasoning, database management, and technical communication. Weekly progress reports, mentor collaboration, and group meetings have been vital in developing my expertise in these areas. In addition, I've had the pleasure of meeting wonderful professionals and scholars who have offered invaluable advice on graduate school, career paths, and beyond. Their guidance has been instrumental in shaping my academic and professional goals. A huge thank you to my mentors Alvin Bates, PMP, Dr. Anjuli Jain Figueroa, and the fantastic team at EJE for their support and guidance. I also would like to thank and acknowledge the UMD Fellows Program for connecting me with this opportunity and helping me build the skills needed for this role! #Justice40 #DOE #Internship #DataAnalysis #DatabaseManagement #Equity #UMD #Economics #Statistics #TechnicalCommunication #Mentorship

The on-going dilemma of finding a mutually acceptable level playing field for collaboration between academics and industry internships has been been brought out in my article published by Deccan Herald daily of today. Glad to have your comments..

Striking the right balance between holistic education and skill development is crucial, especially as universities increasingly partner with industries to make students job-ready. At LabourNet Services India Pvt. Ltd., we’ve experienced this first-hand with our Capstone Projects, initially started with Liberal Arts Dept. Christ University BGR, Bangalore, and now extended to MCES MAHE and RV University. These projects aim to bridge the gap between academia and industry by focusing on real-world problem-solving. By offering students a platform where they can apply their academic knowledge to practical industry problems, we ensure they develop the skills they need to succeed in the workplace. What’s particularly beneficial about our Capstone model is the duration—typically 6 months to a year. This longer timeframe allows students to gradually adapt to the industry environment, gaining deeper insights while tackling real challenges.

Today, we had the pleasure of hosting Northwestern Mutual, a distinguished financial services company, in the Atrium to engage with our students interested in exploring internship or career opportunities within the financial sector. It was an enriching experience as our students had the chance to interact with professionals from Northwestern Mutual, gaining valuable insights into the dynamic landscape of finance. We're particularly proud to mention that Northwestern Mutual continues to be a recruiter of SBA students, especially those studying economics and finance. #UdaytonSBA #NorthwesternMutual #FinanceOpportunities #Internships #ProfessionalGrowth"
