Kenan Institute 2025 Grand Challenge: Skills Gap

Kenan Scholars Public Sector Showcase

Each summer following their sophomore year, Kenan Scholars complete hands-on experiences that put their skills and knowledge to work for the public good. This summer, in addition to internships at non-profits and government agencies, scholars engaged in grant-funded research that examined the impact of COVID-19 on their local communities. This showcase provided scholars the opportunity to present their work via virtual panel presentations.
