William M. Lapenta NOAA Student Internship Program


Applications are now being accepted for the William M. Lapenta Summer Internship Program.  Please see details below.


NOAA is offering paid summer internships through the William M. Lapenta NOAA Student Internship Program targeted towards current 2nd and 3rd year undergraduate and enrolled graduate students to work in areas that will provide robust research and/or operational experience that will prepare the student for further study in NOAA fields, for application to fellowships or for the NOAA-mission workforce.  This internship program enables the National Weather Service (NWS), Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), and National Environmental Satellite Data and Information Service (NESDIS) to target the skills needed to fulfill their specific mission needs.  Projects may be focused on research areas or development of operational products such as decision support tools, climate and weather forecast models, data analysis methodologies and social science strategies to communicate climate and weather information.  Overall, students will focus on areas that will meet the future needs of NOAA’s ever-broadening user community and address strategic weather-water-climate issues.    See here for more information and how to apply: https://www.weather.gov/ncep/student_internships


Applications are due February 1, 2021

Thank you,
