The DoD environmental research and development joint office, the Strategic Environmental Research
and Development Program (SERDP) and the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program
(ESTCP), have opportunities for student involvement at the 2019 SERDP and ESTCP Symposium in
Washington, D.C. on December 3 – 5, 2019.
The SERDP and ESTCP Symposium is the nation’s largest conference focusing on the DoD’s priority
environmental and installation energy issues. The Symposium brings together environmental and energy
researchers and technology developers with the defense end-user and regulatory communities to
showcase cutting edge environmental technologies and ideas. The 2019 Symposium will offer 16
technical sessions, a number of short courses, more than 450 technical poster presentations, exhibitors
from funding and partnering organizations, and a variety of networking opportunities for over 1,000
attendees. To learn more about sessions offered at the Symposium, please visit our website.
Undergraduate and graduate students attending the Symposium are invited to a Student Lunch, where
they will network with and hear from Program Managers and Principal Investigators with SERDP and
ESTCP. This is an excellent opportunity for students to gain more information about potential career
paths as environmental researchers. For student registration, we are offering a discounted price, as well
as a buy one, get one half off deal.
