Internship

UC Riverside Natural Reserves

NRS Experiential Internship

The mission of the UC Natural Reserve System is to preserve natural and wild places for research and education. Most of our visitors are researchers, graduate students, or undergraduates enrolled in field courses. In order to make the reserves more accessible to undergraduates, the UC Riverside NRS Summer Internship provides field-based research experiences. We aim to provide students with a variety of experiences in nature that will broaden their horizons. Key to this amazing internship is introducing undergraduates to the many possible areas of study and careers that are possible in natural areas while building a supportive mentoring network.

This is a 9-week summer internship that pairs undergraduates with faculty or staff working at the UCR Natural Reserves. Students will contribute to scientific research with a mentor, graduate students, and/or associates at a lab and field station at UCR. No previous field experience required.
