How do student scholars select a NOAA mentor?
Student scholars are provided a list of nationwide NOAA internship opportunities during the early-fall. Student scholars contact the prospective NOAA mentor to discuss the project further to determine their interest. If a mutual agreement is reached, the student may e-mail the NOAA mentor an updated resume and e-mail the NOAA Student Scholarship Program information about the summer internship opportunity. After NOAA approves the student scholar’s participation in a project, the student scholar and the NOAA mentor will select the date and time (not to exceed three days) for the site visit, which the student scholar will coordinate with the scholarship team.
