Congrats to CMU Engineering & Public Policy PhD student @LizaBevin for winning best poster at #USAEE18DC! Really nice research challenging conventional thinking on economics of converting existing transmission to HVDC.

Recent/pending grad degree? Believe in the mission of gov’t by and for the people? The #PMF program is a great way to try the civil service. Application open today; closes 10/22! pmf.gov/become-a-pmf/2… #ChaseTheChallengePMF

Learning a lot at #ERID2018. This morning, cool survey data sets from Dept. of Agriculture relevant for #energy researchers: ag census and ag res mgmt survey nass.usda.gov/Surveys/Guide_…

Super place to spend a few years learning how to analyze tough, multidisciplinary problems, prepare + communicate practical solutions, esp. if you want to go to govt or consulting.

When you had new employee orientation, did you pause HR paperwork to take an oath? Civil servants swear to support & defend the Constitution. It’s our “mission statement,” and it’s a driving force for most Feds I know. archive.opm.gov/constitution_i…

You know someone is sharing data w/ you under protest when they send it as a table on a PowerPoint slide converted to a PDF.

Really enjoyed my summer at RAND. If you are in grad school & interested in applied gov’t/policy/think-tank career, this is the premier internship. Work on real projects + network w/ top researchers in their fields.

Not too early to begin planning your #PMF app, or at least putting a reminder in your phone—the window is short once it opens: pmf.gov/become-a-pmf/2… Great pathway to govt service.

If you do #dataviz in #rstats but your office is all PPT, the officer package is a handy workflow tool. Some wrangling req’d, but worth it if you have a long, stable-format briefing that needs periodic data updates. rdocumentation.org/packages/offic…

Ditto! Saddest thing about graduating was losing eligibility! This was always a fun event. Took me a couple of tries, but Dr. Erin Mayfield & I won my final year, then I helped write the case a few times. Glad to see it’s in good hands.

The Presidential Management Fellows #PMF application is now live for the next two weeks. Grad student or recent grad interested in civil service? This is the fast track... get on it! #nowhiring pmf.gov/become-a-pmf/2…

internet hall of fame Oh wow, my sides hurt. 🤣
