What People Are Saying about HRF:

“The event was very much quality over quantity – which we appreciate. We felt like we truly were able to have conversations with students that were interested in working with us and were familiar with the industry. The fact that we didn’t feel like a random vendor and were treated far more like a preferred guest was great.” –Jaclyn McCall, Idaho Power
“I very much appreciate the opportunity you all gave me at the HRF, it allowed me to get a job I would have not thought possible a couple years ago.”
-Kevin Mulligan, HRF Alumnus

“The Hydro Research Foundation has been at the forefront of finding, fostering and guiding a new generation of hydropower talent. After just five years, HRF has placed 75% of its students into jobs within the industry. Thanks to HRF, these young individuals will undoubtedly spur new technological development – from new turbine applications and designs to enhanced operational regimes. HRF’s is helping to ensure that millions of American’s will continue to have access to clean, affordable and reliable hydropower for another century.”
-Linda Church-Ciocci, Executive Director, National Hydropower Association

“Combining the Foundation's scholarship contributions along with the Corps hands-on industry opportunities creates a partnership that will likely be second-to-none in developing and preparing outstanding men and women capable of embracing the challenges in the hydropower industry for years to come.”
–John Etzel, Past Deputy Director of the Hydroelectric Design Center, U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers
