Internship opportunity: Conservation and Land Management Paid Internship

The Conservation and Land Management Internship Program is now accepting applications for 2019!  Apply online at www.clminternship.org

Each year, the Conservation and Land Management Internship Program places 75-100 college graduates in five-month paid internships to assist biologists with our federal (BLM, NPS, FWS, FS, USGS and others) and non-profit partners. Interns gain hands-on experience applying their education in a real-world setting, make connections in various governmental and non-profit organizations, to learn what it’s like to work at a federal agency, explore their career goals and expand their resumes. Projects focus on botany/botany & wildlife biology and include seed collection for conservation & restoration, rare & invasive species monitoring, vegetation inventory & monitoring and post-fire re-vegetation. Applicants with strong botany experience are especially encouraged to apply!

CLM interns earn a stipend of $1,224 – $1,440 (dependent on experience, education, and internship responsibilities) every two weeks and participate in an all-expenses paid week-long training workshop at the Chicago Botanic Garden. Applications are due January 15, 2019 but you’re encouraged to apply early as applications are reviewed on a rolling basis – the sooner your application is complete, the sooner your files will be reviewed and considered for available positions!

The CLM Program is administered by the Chicago Botanic Garden.
