Description:
Each year, the Conservation and Land Management Internship Program places recent college graduates in five-month paid internships to assist biologists with our federal (USFWS, USFS, USGS, and others) and non-profit partners. Interns gain hands-on experience applying their education in real-world setting, make connections in various governmental and non-profit organizations, learn what it's like to work at a federal agency, explore their career goals and expand their resumes. Projects focus on botany/botany & wildlife biology and include seed collection for conservation & restoration, rare & invasive species monitoring, vegetation inventory & monitoring and post-fire re-vegetation. Applicants with strong botany experience are especially encouraged to apply! CLM interns earn a wage of $1,368 every two weeks and participate in career development opportunities. We encourage applicants to apply soon as we review applications on a rolling basis - the sooner your application is complete, the sooner we can review your files and consider you for available positions! The CLM Program is administered by the Chicago Botanic Garden.
