Paid Environmental Internships - Real World Experience and Career Path
The National Council for Science and the Environment (NCSE) is expanding
its internship program (Campus to Careers) to offer dynamic and meaningful
opportunities for recent college graduates and final-year college students
to engage in paid, environmentally-oriented internships with Federal
agencies and private industry.
In a recently awarded Co-Op agreement with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife
Service (FWS), the NCSE has been asked to identify and hire 15 interns to
work at FWS sites throughout the Midwest.
Nine of these internships will involve biological or scientific work in
indigenous species surveys, invasive species monitoring, GIS data
collection, wetland/grassland restoration, and similar projects. Six of
the internships are oriented toward Wildlife Refuge visitor services and
education.
Each internship will be 12 weeks in duration, beginning in May or June and
pays $11.50 per hour. Housing is provided and health insurance is
available. Eligibility is open to recent graduates or to students having
completed their junior year in a natural sciences curriculum; the program
is built with a strong emphasis to promote applicants of diverse ethnic
and cultural backgrounds. These programs may lead to but do not guarantee
career opportunities within the Fish & Wildlife Service.
Current internship openings include

Students and graduates interested in applying for these positions should
fax a résumé / CV to 866-385-4195, or send a résumé / CV in .pdf format to
C2C@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, including a current email address and telephone
number. All inquiries will receive a response including further directions
on pursuing the current intern positions.
