Fusion Student Delegation

The Fusion Student Delegation (FuSD) is a non-partisan student organization focused on preparing the next generation of leaders in fusion energy. Each year, the Delegation embarks on a week-long program in Washington, D.C., which includes policy workshops, expert-led discussions, networking events, and meetings with congressional offices and federal agencies. Our second annual program will take place Saturday, May 31st to Friday, June 6th, 2025.

FuSD gives students the opportunity to engage with Congress, executive agencies, think tanks, and industry groups; advocate for fusion energy-relevant policy; analyze existing public policy and write original policy statements; meet with fusion industry leaders, scientific experts, and policymakers in Washington, DC; and develop their science communication skills 

Participation in FuSD is open to all students who will be pursuing, or will be within one year of having completed, an undergraduate or graduate degree during the annual program in DC (see the Bylaws for further details). Participants for the upcoming year's program are selected through a multi-round application process.
