Internship in Atmospheric Science

ATSC 4498 (Internship in Atmospheric Science) gives ATSC undergraduates an opportunity to obtain valuable paid or unpaid work experience related to atmospheric science, to better position them for employment after graduation. Students contract to work a specified number of hours weekly over a full semester with a state or federal agency or private industry related to atmospheric science, in return for college credit as follows: 3-6 hrs./week=1 sem. hr., 6-9 hrs./week =, 9-12 hrs./week=, 12-15 hrs./week= Students may contract for in a single summer session (5.5 weeks) but may contract for up to if carrying out internship over a regular long semester or two summer sessions (11 weeks). If interning for the summer, students should increase the number of hours interned weekly to account for the shortened period worked, so total hours interned will be equivalent to those in a regular long semester. A student may intern only twice with a single office or agency. The internships will not apply towards graduate credit. N/A
