Note: this opportunity encourages applications from community college students.Description: The Cooperative Institute for Modeling the Earth System (CIMES) at Princeton University in collaboration with NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) is recruiting undergraduate students for 8-9 week research internships in atmospheric, oceanic and earth system science. Awardees will work with host scientists at Princeton University and NOAA/GFDL, a world-leading center of earth system modeling, research and prediction.
Interns will work on a focused scientific problem under the close supervision of their GFDL/Princeton host, and benefit from resources and activities at GFDL, including interaction with scientists and graduate students, access to high performance computing and library facilities, and opportunities to participate in a wide range of seminars and GFDL social events. We particularly encourage applications from students whose participation will add to the diversity of researchers in earth system science, including students from underrepresented groups, first-generation college students, and students who have minimal previous experience engaging in scientific research.
The CIMES summer internship program will be in-person at GFDL in Princeton, New Jersey. Interns will receive a stipend of $5,600 - $6,300 for a 40-hour work week depending on the length of the internship. Starting dates and length of the internship are flexible depending on host availability. On campus room and board is typically made available to interns from early June to early August and is provided as part of the program.
