Description: The Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research (CIGLR) offers the Great Lakes Summer Fellows Program, in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab (GLERL). The Great Lakes Summer Fellows Program exposes students to a broad range of STEM disciplines by providing hands-on research training and career development mentoring in a supportive and inclusive environment. Through this program, we seek to support diversity in Great Lakes research by valuing the wide range of identities, backgrounds, perspectives, and skills that enrich scientific exploration and help connect science with society. We strongly encourage applications from students who identify with groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in STEM careers.
We are offering ten full-time, 12-week positions.
Options exist for fully remote, hybrid, or fully in-person fellowship experiences. Please see each project description for details on these options, as they vary depending on project requirements.
In-person work will be conducted at the NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) in Ann Arbor, MI.
Each student will receive a $10,000 stipend, paid in four monthly installments of $2,500.
Students currently residing outside of the southeast Michigan area will receive an additional travel stipend up to $1,500 to offset costs for relocating to Ann Arbor for in-person work, or for a short-term visit to NOAA GLERL if working remotely. We will provide assistance to students in need of local transportation to/from the work site while in Ann Arbor (if applicable).
Please visit our website to learn more about eligibility and the application process.
