Upcoming Deadlines
Scientists in Parks (SIP) Deadline (Winter Experience - internships starting between October and April)
Date and Time
Tuesday, June 11, 2024
Description
Every year, the Scientists in Parks work experience program places
hundreds of aspiring professionals across the National Park System to
work on natural resource management needs. Past projects have mapped
sand dunes at Fire Island National Seashore, surveyed towering cacti
at Saguaro National Park, and protected nesting sea turtles at Padre
Island National Seashore. Others assessed pika populations at Rocky
Mountain National Park, measured soils beneath the mangrove forests of
Everglades National Park, and restored colorful corals beneath the
waves at the National Park of American Samoa.
The program is committed to providing all aspiring
professionals—especially those underrepresented in science—with a
unique opportunity to work on important real-world projects while
building professional experience and a life-long connection to
America’s national parks. Any aspiring professional who is a U.S.
citizen or U.S. permanent legal resident may participate in the
Scientists in Parks Program.
Some Scientists in Parks positions have additional requirements
regarding advanced skills, seasonal availability, and academic status.
Applicants are encouraged to carefully read all eligibility
requirements as stated in the individual position announcements. This
fellowship encompasses research experience, summer (or other
internship period) income, and an opportunity to earn non-competitive
eligibility for permanent NPS positions all rolled into one
This event has been tagged as academic, cuse, environment, and fellowships.
