Internships & Careers

Internships are mentored, one-on-one experiences that offer students individual practical experience in settings that match their particular interests. When possible, internships tie in with a student's other coursework to magnify and extend the impact of the internship, and to provide benefits to both students and host organizations. Because of the broad range of disciplines that intersect with environmental studies and sciences, the menu of possible internships is rich and varied.

The UNC Institute for the Environment is seeking motivated and talented undergraduate students interested in conducting research in the fields of Marine Sciences, Geology, Geography, Natural Resources and Land Use Planning and Environmental Sciences and Engineering. More information
