Minimum Salary: $19.09
*APPLICANT MUST BE A CURRENT PART-TIME OR FULL-TIME STUDENT (MINIMUM OF 6 CREDIT HOURS) IN UPCOMING SEMESTER OR IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SEMESTER.
Position Description:
The spring internships will begin in January. The opportunity exists for these positions to be either full-time (40 hr/week) or part-time (~20-40 hr/week) depending on the applicant's schedule and will conclude when the applicant goes back to school.

Interns will be required to work both indoors and outdoors, which will involve wearing waders, working in inclement weather, and lifting up to 50 lbs. The opportunity exists to play a key role in numerous hatchery research projects, primarily by collecting data and conducting literature reviews, but also by assisting with data analysis and manuscript preparation. Interns may also be assigned lead responsibilities on a specific research project if desired.
