Paid Summer Research Opportunities for Two-Year and Four-Year College Students in the Geoscience



Join us for a webinar on Dec 14, 2016 at 11:00 AM MST.
 *Register now!*


Have you thought about a career in the sciences but are unsure what that might look like, or if it’s the path for you? Are you excited about trying out scientific research? Would you like to be paid to spend your summer doing genuine science, being mentored by professional scientists, and exploring the geosciences (disciplines include atmospheric science, geology, oceanography, water resources, forest and microbial ecology and climate change)? If so, a summer research program might be just right for you!

In this webinar we will discuss the types of research opportunities available to you, what you can expect during your summer research experience, and how to put together a convincing application package. We’ll share information about a range of different geoscience research programs across the country and have time to answer your questions.

This webinar is specifically aimed at undergraduates in their first to third years of study, who may be interested in paid summer research opportunities. Community college students and students from non-research institutions are especially encouraged to attend. If you have special circumstances, such as a family or a disability, programs are happy to work with you.

The webinar will be recorded and made available to everyone who registers, so please register if you’re interested, even if you’re unable to attend the event live.

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
