Webinar: 12th Annual RTI Internship Showcase
Date
We invite you to attend the 12th Annual RTI Internship Showcase via Zoom.
2020 RTI Internship Showcase Digital Program
This downloadable program includes a detailed agenda, with links to individual presentations.
Interns at RTI receive mentored learning experiences that allow them to meaningfully contribute to RTI’s mission—to improve the human condition—by turning their knowledge and skills from academic coursework into practice. Throughout the summer, interns have the opportunity to participate in professional development activities that serve to supplement their technical experiences, culminating with the Internship Showcase. Join us via Zoom for a chance to hear from interns about their experiences and celebrate their accomplishments.
