USGS Pathways Internship Program – Applications for Summer 2024 Now Open

Dear Students,

I wanted to circulate our annual call for summer internship applications at the USGS Geologic Hazards Science Center (GHSC) in Golden, CO and Albuquerque, NM.  The application window will be open for two weeks, starting now through February 12. The links to apply either as a current undergraduate or graduate student are below, and there are opportunities for students ranging from 1st/2nd-year undergraduates all the way up to doctoral candidates. Please see the project opportunity page for a list of projects spanning all areas of GHSC research and operational efforts (earthquake, landslide, geomagnetism) this year. Applicants will have the opportunity to indicate specific projects they are interested in contributing to in their application. Links to the application pages for undergraduate and graduate students are provided below, and see here for a summary of the USGS pathways internship program.

GS-3/4 for undergrads: https://www.usajobs.gov/job/773141100

GS-5/7 for grads: https://www.usajobs.gov/job/773141200

I would specifically highlight a number of earthquake engineering-specific projects related to the National Seismic Hazard Model and its use in building codes, ground failure forecasting efforts, seismic source and ground motion characterization, and real-time earthquake monitoring, among many others. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
