Comments closedThe NSF MESA Summer Team Internship program is an excellent opportunity for students to develop new skills, gain experience working in science and engineering firms, collaborate in a team, and build relationships with potential employers.
Students will be placed in teams of 2-4 students to collaborate on a research poster that details their work on projects in science and engineering firms or for faculty in, but not limited to, San Diego. Prior summer team internships and its luncheons/receptions/poster presentations can be viewed in the archives.
The internship is a minimum of 100 hours at $12.50/hour for a total of a $1,250 stipend (minus applicable taxes).

Comments closedThrough the San Diego MESA Alliance, college students will have a unique experience to witness the “real world” of work in an engineering or scientific environment. Your involvement will provide a great opportunity for our up and coming students to “test the waters” in a field of their interest and see first-hand how classroom skills relate to the workplace.
What better way to do that, than observe and work with a professional in action! You the employer, get to make a positive impact on the lives of students; future engineers and scientists!

Comments closedThere are a limited number of competitive, paid internship opportunities available with the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) through the Student Career Experience Program (SCEP). If you know of a student that would be interested in a summer internship or you believe would make a valuable addition to the FWS, please encourage them to contact their regional FWS office (www.fws.gov/where) and apply directly to their respective regions for open positions. As I receive more information about this and other opportunities I will pass it along. In the mean time, please post and spread the word to any promising student who is focusing on a natural resources-related degree.
