Internships With the National Wildlife Federation
The One Day, One Job/Internship team is partaking in the tradition of Spring Break (even if some of us aren't in college anymore), so our posts are going to be on the shorter side for the next week or so. We figure, time off from school should give you plenty of time to do the research yourselves, right? Our compromise is that we're going to give you more links, and less commentary. How's that? I'm enjoying the wildlife of Puerto Rico, which includes ospreys, tarpon, egrets, iguanas (invasive, but still cool to look at), and a lot more, so it's appropriate that today's internships come from the National Wildlife Federation (NWF).
The NWF is a non-profit organization that aims to inspire Americans to protect wildlife for our children's future. If you love the outdoors and the creatures that live in the wild, then interning with them is a great way to spend your Summer. Internships are paid and vary in length - many last much longer than the typical 10-12 weeks of most internships. In their Ann Arbor, MI office the NWF has internships in Environmental Management Systems (Conservation Programs) and Legal. There's also an internship in Education (Conservation Programs) listed, but it says that the start date was in January. Either they reused a listing, they never took it down, or they haven't filled the position yet. Lastly, there's an internship in International Affairs (Conservation Programs) at NWF's Washington, DC office. You can also search internships on the NWF website, but at the time of this writing, you won't find any that we haven't already mentioned.
