[nativestudies-l] Summer Undergraduate Environmental Internship Opportunity

[Alyssa Mt. Pleasant]

 From the Init-tho list-serve:

NCEH/ATSDR is hosting a ten week paid summer internship for 
undergraduate students that are passionate about the environment.  At 
the National Center for Environmental Health/Agency for Toxic Substances 
and Disease Registry, we hope to inspire students to gain awareness of 
the fascinating field of environmental health.  This opportunity is for 
rising junior and rising senior students that are majoring 
in environmental studies and related fields.

We would appreciate it if you would pass on the information below to 
your professional colleagues, fellow scientists, and academics. We are 
looking for students who have a demonstrated interest in the environment 
and who are leaders on their college campuses. I have attached a flyer 
that you may post or forward in order to reach a broader number of 
individuals. In addition, you may want to direct people to visit our 
website _www.cdc.gov/nceh/cleh_ <http://www.cdc.gov/nceh/cleh> if they 
have questions, or they may contact me personally. Our first year for 
the Collegiate Leaders in Environmental Health program was 2008, and was 
considered a complete success by participating interns and project 
supervisors. We hope to enlist your help in order to receive the most 
qualified candidates from across the United States for the class of 2009.

Below you will find a short description of the internship that you may 
pass on.
