Overview:

Each summer, the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office and Chesapeake Research Consortium team up to offer several paid summer internships primarily for college students. In summer 2022, the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office will offer five internships covering a range of Chesapeake Bay science, policy and education efforts. Each paid internship will run 12 weeks (mid-May through mid-August). They are intended for students who will be entering their sophomore, junior, or senior year of college study. 

NCBO Supports interns through two different programs, The Chesapeake-Student Recruitment, Early Advisement and Mentoring and NOAA Chesapeake Bay Summer Internship Program.

The Chesapeake-Student Recruitment, Early Advisement and Mentoring (C-StREAM) Program is for college students who identify as people of color and/or who are first-generation college students. Learn more about the C-StREAM program and application process. 

We will host two interns through this program in summer 2022. We are still finalizing the position descriptions for these opportunities. The deadline for application will be February 21, 2022. The internship opportunities will focus on:

Environmental Literacy:  Intern will support teacher workshops, develop learning activities, manage data from our grant program and workshops, and contribute to resources available through Bay Backpack. If in person, this internship will be based in Oxford, Maryland. 

Field Operations and Observations: Intern will help NCBO’s field team conduct operations and work with our observational buoys and hypoxia platform. This internship will only be held if it can safely be done in person. It can be based either in Annapolis or Oxford, Maryland. 

 

The NOAA Chesapeake Bay Summer Internship Program lets college students work and learn about science, policy, and education programming. Learn more about the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Summer Internship Program and application process. We will host three interns through this program in summer 2022. The application deadline is February 21, 2022. Here are the internship opportunities: 

Climate and Coastal Resilience: Assist with the development of a framework document for climate change indicators that includes conceptual case studies on connecting physical change indicators with impacts to living resources and habitats, as well as potential resilience activities to minimize negative impacts. If in-person, it will be based in Annapolis, Maryland.

Data Analysis and Visualization: Intern will work on developing data visualizations using buoy data that support scientific and educational use. If in-person, it will be based in Annapolis, Maryland.

Community Partnerships: Intern will identify ways traditional ecological knowledge could be applied to restoration and resilience projects in Virginia’s Middle Peninsula. If in-person, it will be based in Annapolis, Maryland.

 

In all of our internship programming we are committed to supporting a diverse and inclusive science-oriented workforce. We highly encourage applicants from historically black colleges and universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, and tribal colleges and universities.
