It's that time of year again...North Carolina college students have a great opportunity to gain experience in the environmental, natural and cultural resources fields with the North Carolina Department of Administration's Council for Women and Youth Involvement State Internship Program. Applications are due by January 13, 2017.
Permanent North Carolina residents attending a college, university, law school, community
college or technical institute in North Carolina or a North Carolina resident attending an equivalent institution out
of state are eligible to apply for these internships.
Interns work 40 hours a week for a 10-week period, earning $8.25 an hour. They participate in meetings, educational
tours and other activities designed to broaden their perspective of public service and state government. There are up to
80 internship positions available during the summer at various state agencies located throughout North Carolina.
The Departments of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and Natural and Cultural Resources (DNCR) have many internships available. Many of these internships involve elements of environmental education or public outreach.
Divisions within DEQ with internship opportunities include Coastal Management, Waste Management, Marine Fisheries, Water Resources, and Energy, Mineral and Land Resources. Divisions within DNCR with opportunities include the Wildlife Resources Commission, the Maritime Museum, the Museum of the Cape Fear, all three N.C. Aquariums, various State Parks, the Museum of Natural Sciences, and the N.C. Zoo.
The Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs has hosted several state interns in the past and encourages you to share these great opportunities with college students you know.
The online program booklet has a list and description of all the internships as well as the application information and program requirements.
