The Student Conservation Association (SCA) is a nonprofit organization that offers conservation internships and summer trail crew opportunities to more than 3,000 people each year. SCA is focused on developing conservation and community leaders while getting important work done on the land. Founded in 1957 to restore and protect America’s public lands and preserve them for future generations, SCA remains committed to this goal today.
The San Juan Collaboratory The University of Colorado at Boulder (UCB), Fort Lewis College (FLC), and the Mountain Studies Institute (MSI) have developed a new collaborative effort for integrated, interdisciplinary studies on the Western Slope of Colorado. "Through this coordinated effort, we will develop multi-disciplinary, problem-oriented research efforts to serve the needs of rural Southwestern Colorado and establish on-site learning opportunities at the undergraduate and graduate levels by building bridges between educational institutions and community groups."
Interns will work with researchers and environmental managers on a variety of projects spanning hydrology, water quality, and ecology and addressing issues such as climate change, land development, air and water pollution, and ecosystem protection. Interns will be based in various locations (but mainly in Durango and Silverton, CO). Interns will participate in 2 program-wide field trips, prepare a poster about their internship experience, and will present the poster at an internship exhibit. Interns will receive a $2,500 stipend, lodging, and transportation while on program field trips. Some positions may require that the intern have their own transportation to their work site. Students electing to receive academic credit will pay tuition at either Fort Lewis College of UC Boulder. All interns are required to take the short course.
