Applicants will be screening applications on the basis of relevant background and interest in energy. Attendance is compulsory and there will be a “2 and out” policy. We understand that classes and other commitments happen, so each person can have up to 2 absences. After two absences we will give up that person’s seat to the next person on the waiting list.
