GeoCorp America Soil Science Internships
GeoCorps America has announced that 40 jobs will be available this
summer, 2007, for work with the National Park Service, US Forest
Service, and Bureau of Land Management. These are paid geoscience
positions at many interesting locations. GeoCorps Positions pay a
$2,500 stipend for 10-12 weeks of duty and free housing is provided.
The positions are open to students, teachers, professionals and
retirees. Of the 40 jobs, two are soil scientist positions and I would
characterise both as college internships. One is in the BLM Butte
Falls Resource Area (out of Medford, OR), assessing trail conditions
on hiking trails and assessing impacts from off-highway vehicle use.
The other is in the Sierra National Forest (out of Clovis, CA) and
involves sampling and monitoring under the supervision of the Forest
Soil Scientist. Expectations of the candidates for the second one are
a tad more demanding. Classwork in pedology, edaphology, geology,
ecology and botany is a plus. Application postmark deadline is Friday,
2 February, 2007.
