In June, we celebrated 90 graduates from the Knight Campus Graduate Internship Program! Along with commencement, the @UOKnightCampus held a Graduation Open House, so graduates had time to connect with staff, students, and family members. Congrats to our KCGIP Grads! #UOGrad24

The OR Legislature is considering a bill that would invest up to $3 million in semiconductor training at the UO, including KCGIP. If you have a few minutes TODAY and feel compelled to do so, please use the link below to share your support for the bill! p2a.co/zy4ib0p

This funding would allow us the opportunity to update facilities, equipment, and grow our semiconductor program. For ease, there is a note that you can use as-is, edit, or you can insert your own message. Thank you in advance! This could mean big things for KCGIP!
