EOL Summer Undergraduate Engineering Internships

What does an engineering intern do?

While working at EOL, interns help develop new instrumentation and improve our existing suite of NSF/NCAR lower atmospheric observing facilities. Most internships also offer the opportunity to gain practical experience operating operating facilities in the field by deploying on one of our NSF-funded research projects.

Interns are encouraged to develop their own engineering solutions as they work with and are mentored by professional, experienced engineers and technicians. During the internship, interns have access to a large number of resources such as sophisticated testing and calibration instruments, technical documentation, state-of-the art fabrication capabilities.

Who should apply?

EOL's mission primarily requires electrical, mechanical, optical, and computer engineering skills but we encourage all engineering students to apply. EOL provides an hourly wage as well as travel support and housing while in Boulder, and expenses in the field.

How do I apply?

We will open registration for Summer 2009 in December 2008, so stay tuned.
