2022 Presentations
Students in CISL’s SIParCS internship program will make their oral presentations on July 26 and 27 in the Main Seminar Room of the NCAR Mesa Lab in Boulder.
Anyone interested can attend via live webcast – including students’ family, friends, and others – but the Mesa Lab is not yet open to the public. In person attendance is limited to NCAR, UCAR, and UCP staff.
Attendees will be able to submit questions via Slido. The presentations will be recorded and published for those who cannot attend.
