Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Mountain Studies Institute Natural Resource Internship
Program

The Mountain Studies Institute, as part of the San Juan Collaboratory,
announces its fourth year of the Natural Resources Internship Program! 
This is a paid 10-week opportunity to live and work in the beautiful San
Juan Mountain Region of Southwest Colorado. The internship is open to
students and recent graduates, and is an excellent career-building
experience for those interested in research and management of natural
resources. There are multiple positions, ranging from field hydrology to
community energy efficiency to water quality monitoring. Many previous
interns have continued on to graduate school or have been hired through
connections made at their internship. Internship dates are June 6 - August
12, and the application deadline is March 30. More information and the
application form can be found at: http://www.mountainstudies.org/index.php?

Qualifications: Potential interns should be college juniors, seniors, or
recent graduates with a background or strong interest in environmental
science, natural resource management, ecology, hydrology, water resources,
or related field. Most positions require a willingness to work in a field
setting, with potential for difficult hiking, challenging weather
conditions, or high-elevations. Interns should be able to work both
independently and as part of a team, have good communication skills, and a
positive attitude!
