The Rutgers Energy Institute hosted a Women in Energy networking and mentoring event. Dean Jacquelyn Litt, of Douglass Residential College and Douglass Campus, discussed initiatives and programs at Douglass College and how students can participate. This was followed by “speed mentoring” with Rutgers alumnae, and a networking reception.
The focus was on female leadership in the energy and STEM sector, with participants sharing their experiences, career paths, and advise for those students seeking to enter the energy/environment field. Attendees were provided the opportunity to network and/or mentor with female faculty, alumni, government and corporate leaders, post-doctoral fellows, and undergraduate students both during the speed networking and reception portion of the evening.
