HR mandated training early on.
• Please get all of the charge codes an intern will ever need, to them early
on.
• If possible, see about getting a calendar together with all intern events
listed, and try to get this calendar to them early on.

INROADS and their events on
interns and their time tables.

double major with Engineering Physics.
