SUMMER INTERNSHIP: OGCI YOUTH INTERN TRAINING PROGRAMME

Applications are available until May 20, 11:59 UTC – apply here.

Since April, new graduates around the world have been facing unexpected barriers at the start of  their careers as the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in cancelled work placements, summer schools, leadership opportunities, and internships. In support of young people worldwide, Student Energy encouraged employers and institutions (who were able to) to provide more opportunities for young people during this time. 

We are excited to announce that our call to support the next generation of leaders was answered by the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative. The OGCI Youth Intern Training Programme is offering online, paid work internship positions with the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative from June to September 2020. Supported by Student Energy, these positions will allow youth to become an integral part of the Strategy and Policy team, and support OGCI’s climate agenda on one of the following four themes: low emissions opportunities, transportation, the role of gas, and carbon capture utilization and storage. Young people in Student Energy’s network and alumni from Student Energy’s programs are particularly encouraged to apply.The successful candidates will gain experience critical to a career in climate change and sustainable energy.
