[Plsugs] OUTREACH - Biosphere 2 Outreach Scholars

[Quist, Tanya M - (tquist)]

Dear Colleagues, Community Leaders, and Teachers, ​

We are excited to announce that we are accepting applications for our summer 2017 Outreach Scholars!

Biosphere 2 seeks graduate and undergraduate students to serve as full-time, immersive science mentors during two, one-week-long residential summer programs for middle and high school students in July 2017. Total time commitment is approximately 2 weeks during July with a few days of training beforehand as well. Successful candidates will be independent, trustworthy, and responsible. Applicants should enjoy spending time and interacting with young people (grades 7-12), have an interest in science and STEM education (but do not have to be science or education majors), be outgoing and well spoken, and have high energy.

Candidates will need to be fingerprinted and undergo a background check. A stipend of up to $750 is available to selected applicants that successfully complete the Academy experience as an Outreach Scholar.  Please share with students, departmental listservs, and any other dissemination methods you may have.
