About the Position
The King County Department of Natural Resources, Water and Land Resources Division seeks a seasonal Environmental Aide to assist with environmental monitoring and applied studies that support salmon recovery efforts. 

Liz Giles, the Outdoor School Director at YMCA Camp Dudley in Naches, WA.
We are hiring naturalists for our spring season (April 7-June 11), and I’m hoping you can pass this information on to any upcoming UW graduates or other students who might be interested in a fun, short-term job in outdoor education.
We serve fifth and sixth graders from Yakima Valley and surrounding areas, who come to Camp Dudley for one to four days to participate in hands-on science classes (with other disciplines woven in), outdoor recreation activities, and community building experiences. 

Passing along this announcement from Dr. Muyin Wang at CICOES! Seeking project proposals for undergraduate REU participants to participate in during Summer 2025. Direct any questions to muyin@uw.edu. 
 
Dear all:
 
I hope you have had a good Thanksgiving!
CICOES intends to support 15 undergraduate interns in summer 2025.
 
We’re now soliciting project proposals for summer 2025. If you have a project for an undergraduate, please submit a project description before 30 December 2024 via Google form and we’ll do our best to identify 3-6 applicants for you to choose from. 

We are pleased to announce that applications are open for the Aquaculture Experiential Opportunities for Undergraduate Students (AquEOUS) Fellowship, an USDA Research and Extension Experience for Undergraduates (REEU) at the University of Maine’s Wabanaki Center and Aquaculture Research Institute (ARI) and in collaboration with Wabanaki Youth in Science.
This unique fellowship offers undergraduate students from around the nation an opportunity to use indigenous science and STEM concepts to solve real-world problems in aquaculture at the University of Maine’s world class aquaculture facilities. 

This year, the Explorer-in-Training program will feature two paid internship options: (a) 10-week, summertime opportunities and (b) 2-4 week expedition-based opportunities. The 10-week internships provide students an opportunity to develop their skills and knowledge through long-term projects supported by mentors in NOAA Ocean Exploration and partner organizations. The 2-4 week expedition-based internships involve participation in NOAA Ocean Exploration-supported expeditions aboard NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer supporting seafloor mapping operations, giving participants the chance to contribute to mission efforts while gaining tangible skills that can benefit their future pursuits.

IRES Costa Rica Program Application
NSF-IRES Costa Rica program
This National Science Foundation-funded program takes place in Santa Elena Bay, located on the northwest Pacific coast of Costa Rica. A unique oceanographic feature of this region is the seasonal upwelling also known as the “Papagayo Upwelling” which brings deep cold and nutrient-rich water to the surface during the trade wind season, driving high productivity and biodiversity in the area. 

We are hosting an information session for the NOAA Hollings Scholarship on Tuesday December 3rd at 4:00pm in FSH 207.  Freshmen and Sophomores are encouraged to attend. Sophomores already intending to apply for the Hollings this round may benefit from this information session, where we will have a panel of current UW Hollings Scholars to answer questions. We will also share information about other resources for application support, including dates for workshops that we are planning to hold in January. 

Apply to spend 2 weeks in Costa Rica working with experts in sea turtle research and conservation next summer through this UC Santa Barbara program!
