Undergraduate Summer Internship for Underrepresented Minorities

Greetings from the South Central Climate Science Center!

We are pleased to announce that we will be offering a summer undergraduate
internship opportunity in 2017 for students of underrepresented minorities
interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields (for
example, agricultural science, economics, environmental engineering).
Interns will be involved in hands-on activities related to climate research
that will allow them to see the direct impacts of climate variability and
change on the West Texas Southern High Plains, prairie and forest
ecosystems and tribal cultures in Oklahoma, and the bayous, delta and
coastline of Louisiana. Internship participants will travel across the
South Central United States to visit university campuses and field
locations, so they must have the physical ability and willingness to travel
or work outside as well as endure different living conditions. Internship
participants must be comfortable (but do not have to have prior experience)
with traveling by boat and kayak (safety equipment will be provided).

Samples of the 2014 and 2015 itineraries are available:

The internship will take place from Sunday, July 9, 2017 to Saturday, July
29, 2017. Interns will spend one week with Louisiana State University, one
week with the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University, and one
week with Texas Tech University. All meals, lodging and travel will be
provided during the three week period. In addition, interns will receive a
$200/week stipend for the duration of the program. The program will not
cover local travel between the participant's home to their closest airport,
personal equipment (clothing, cameras, etc.), or other personal expenses.
