Student Interns:
High School and College students will have the opportunity to spend 20 to 80 hours working on air quality or air quality related issues impacting on tribal nations. We prefer to place student interns close to home or school.
The purpose of the internship is to give students an exposure to a potential career opportunity.

Tribal Environmental Professionals will have the opportunity to spend 40 hours working on education and outreach in air quality. The purpose of the internship is to prepare tribal environmental professionals to do education and outreach.
Application Process:
If you are interested in an internship, please complete the on-line application. Your application will be evaluated based on complete, meaningful responses to each question. We recommend completing the application in a word processing application where
you can check the spelling and grammar, then copy and paste the text into the on-line application. Two or three thoughtful, well-written paragraphs would be appropriate for each section of the application.
