Would you like to put your education to use assisting in important
conservation projects? Do you like to experience new landscapes,
habitats, and species diversity? The CLM Internship Program is a
wonderful opportunity to begin a career in botany, wildlife biology,
natural resource management and conservation!
Each year, the Conservation and Land Management Internship Program
places 75-100 college graduates in five-month paid internships to assist
professional staff at the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), National
Park Service (NPS), US Forest Service (US FS), US Fish and Wildlife
Service (FWS) and US Geologic Survey (USGS). Internships are primarily
located in one of the thirteen western states, including Alaska. Each
internship is unique and may focus on botany, wildlife, or a combination
of the two. Projects may include collecting seed for restoration and
conservation purposes and data on threatened and endangered species and
habitats. Applicants with strong botanical backgrounds are especially
encouraged to apply!
Benefits of the CLM Internship Program are numerous. As a CLM
intern, you will receive a stipend paid every two weeks totaling
$11,900 over 5 months and will attend an all-expenses paid week-long
training workshop at a location to be determined. In addition, the CLM
Internship Program provides opportunities to make connections in various
governmental and non-profit organizations, to learn what it's like
to work at a federal agency, to explore your career goals and expand
your resume. For more information and to apply online, please visit:
