The DAAD RISE scholarship covers the costs to intern at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany. I will be researching sustainable energy with solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels that can potentially decarbonize the aircraft industry. Next fall, I am applying to PhD programs and hope to research clean energy, which this internship will prepare me for.
