Subject: Seasonal Field Technician positions open at Michigan Natural Features Inventory

Hello, Jim Schneider,

I hope that you’ve had a wonderful year! Mike Monfils, MNFI director, said that you were the one to contact about open positions that might interest MSU Fisheries and Wildlife students or recent graduates. We will have three seasonal Field Technician positions open at Michigan Natural Features Inventory for the 2026 season, two of which are open now. These are temporary, part- or full-time positions that upperclassmen, recent graduates, or graduate students of biology would be interested in. If you know of a good fit, feel free to send them to the links below or the attached fliers!
