RBN Energy is happy to introduce our Student Pass Blog Writing Contest. This contest offers students a chance to earn cash prizes and be published as RBN’s Daily Energy Blog that’s read by tens of thousands of energy professionals across the world. RBN works with university faculty to coordinate these contests for their students, with the intent of encouraging students to write well researched interesting articles, and also providing public recognition for their effort and their school to the entire RBN Energy blogosphere.

About RBN’s Student Pass Program
The RBN Student Pass program is designed to bring our energy research to university students across the world. Starting with the foundation of “The Domino Effect”, a book written RBN founder, Rusty Braziel, students learn about U.S. crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids (NGLs) markets at no additional cost.

About the Texas A&M TRIP Program
The Texas A&M Trading, Risk & Investments Certificate Program (TRIP) prepares students in the fields of energy trading, investments and risk management by combining exceptional class instruction with hands-on, internship-based experience. TRIP is open to any undergraduate student at Texas A&M in any major, U2 & U3 classifications preferred but not required. In TRIP students are assigned internships with three different Advisory Board member firms. Firms give TRIP students the opportunity to learn and add value to the company while earning competitive compensation. Through these internships, students will leave the program with 10-12 months of relevant experience and exposure to company cultures, preparing them to hit the ground running in their careers.
