NOAA Ocean Exploration Explorer-in-Training Program
A core part of the NOAA Ocean Exploration mission is to train the next generation of ocean explorers through internship and fellowship opportunities for students and early career professionals.
Since 2009, NOAA Ocean Exploration and UCAR CPAESS have hosted over 170 explorers-in-training. These interns gain valuable, interdisciplinary experience in ocean exploration while collaborating on office projects and expeditions. The program equips participants with skills to meet the current and future demands of the ocean exploration workforce by providing meaningful experiential learning opportunities that support NOAA Ocean Exploration's mission, inspire ocean literacy for the next generation, and enable students to increase their competitiveness for educational and career opportunities in ocean-related fields.
The program features two internship options: (a) 10-week, summertime opportunities and (b) expedition-based opportunities.
Applications due January 31
