What is the purpose of the internship?
The purpose of the internship is to provide hands-on multidisciplinary educational and training experience involving scholars in NOAA-related science, research, technology, policy, management and education activities. Opportunities to complete the internship are available throughout the United States and U.S. territories. NOAA offices, programs, and laboratories offer a wide variety of options for the internship experience. Contact the NOAA Office of Education or visit the NOAA website at http://www.noaa.gov to explore the range of NOAA opportunities available at a desired location. If an internship requires relocation for the summer, scholars receive travel and housing subsidies under the terms of the award.
