Are you interested in learning more about water quality monitoring or community science? Looking to gain experience in field sampling or laboratory analyses for your internship or research credit? 

Depending on funding availability, we offer undergraduate and graduate internships, paid on-campus jobs, and honors thesis/research projects under Dr. Susan Libes. Email us to learn about our current opportunities and openings. Please include your academic year, major, reason for involvement (job experience, honors thesis, potential graduate student, etc.), and what you are interested in. 

We strive to support our students with paid internships and research experiences. However, funding is not always available. We encourage students to explore other funding opportunities including internal and external grants and fellowships. Contact the Office of Undergraduate Research to learn more.
