EPIC welcomes KIT students
On April 2, 2019, EPIC, welcomed 8 students from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Karlsruhe, Germany, as they take part in a six-month research exchange program. KIT is one of the largest and most prestigious research and education institutions in Europe and is known around the world for its high quality of research work. This partnership is a result of a “Memorandum of Understanding” signed in 2013, between KIT and EPIC with the purpose of building a trans-Atlantic energy bridge and aims to link academic and research initiatives of the two institutions around key energy issues. Students will work with UNC Charlotte faculty on a variety of energy-related research. In May, 5 UNC Charlotte students will head to KIT for a ten-week exchange.
