Internship Impact: Stories from our Undergraduate Fellows

Join us to hear from our Career Exploration Fellowship students and learn how their summer experience has made an impact both on their lives and the world.

Each student spent about 8 weeks working with an ag tech company or doing research using AI technology — and each one has a compelling story to tell.

They learned about research, career opportunities, and how companies are developing solutions to our growing need for nutritious food produced in a way that is efficient and sustainable for our planet.

WHEN: Thursday, Sep. 5, 1:00–2:00 PM

WHERE: AIFS Seminar Room 1025, PSEL Building, UC Davis Campus

About

The goal of AIFS’ Career Exploration Fellowship Program is to prepare undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds for careers at the intersection of food, agriculture, and technology. The program pairs college students with companies and university labs to work on exciting projects that are addressing critical challenges in food and agriculture using innovative technologies.

Students spend 8 weeks working full time at their placements during the summer, and present on their experiences at the end of the program.

Throughout their fellowships, students participate in cohort activities designed to expand their professional skills and knowledge of career paths. This program is open to undergraduates and community college students at schools in the United States.

Applications are typically accepted in February and March.
