[Plsugs] INTERNSHIP - CONSERVE

[Quist, Tanya M - (tquist)]

CONSERVE (COordinating Nontraditional Sustainable watER Use in Variable climatEs) is a Center of Excellence at the nexus of sustainable water reuse, food, and health.  Our leading team of scientists and educators are investigating sources of nontraditional irrigation water that can provide safe, transformative on‐farm solutions for food crops and reduce the nation’s agricultural water challenges that are exacerbated by climate change. With projects located throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Southwest, we are looking for undergraduate student interns to assist us in our research and education efforts.

We are currently looking for assistance on projects focusing on:
·         Water quality analysis,
·         On-farm treatment equipment testing,
·         Spatial analysis and mapping,
·         Consumer behavior and economics,
·         Educational media development, and
·         Farmer education and outreach.
Find out more about our opportunities and student eligibility by going to http://conservewaterforfood.org/summer-intern-program-1.

The 8-week internship will start on June 18, 2018, ending on August 10, 2018. Interns will receive a stipend of $5,000. Students are responsible for their own lodging. We will be accepting applications until February 23, 2018.
