Research and Internships

Talk with any of the Environmental Studies faculty members about opportunities to work with them on research projects and develop your own independent research projects.  To start, contact Dr. Lisa Collins.

 

In addition to the summer opportunities offered by the ENST Program, internships are available with many government agencies and organizations. 

 

Here are two examples:

 

Smithsonian Environmental Research Center Internship Program

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Student Summer Employment Opportunities

 

 

SURF

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fund is an opportunity for USC Dornsife students to pursue undergraduate research, in collaboration with Dornsife faculty, either on or off campus during the summer semester. Funds can be used to participate in a "Problems Without Passports" summer course.

SOAR

The Student Opportunities for Academic Research program provides funding for undergraduates to be a research assistant in a faculty member’s project, or to pursue a scholarly research project of their own choosing (sponsored and supervised by a faculty member).
