Current Internship Opportunities

NCICS is currently seeking several paid, part-time, summer interns to work with us for approximately 10 weeks on the following projects:

  1. Evaluating the relationship of soil temperature to vegetation phenology using ground-based soil temperature and remotely-sensed vegetation information (experience with programming and basic statistics helpful).

  2. Typhoon data reanalysis to determine the intensity and location of historical typhoons using a consistent methodology and current knowledge of how to best utilize historical observations.

  3. Public Health Adaptation Planning for Local Health Departments and Hospital Systems. Project aims: (1) survey local public health departments and hospital systems concerning available tools and knowledge to systematically perform county-level climate change vulnerability assessments; (2) explore innovative ways to partner with the healthcare community to reduce the environmental footprint of medical facilities.

  4. Climate Change Impacts on Reproductive Health. Project aims: (1) perform a nationally representative population-based retrospective study to explore the association between ambient temperature and severe maternal morbidity; (2) explore the application of digital technology in measuring environmental and health parameters in pregnant women.

These positions are open to current undergraduate students.
