As part of the two-year program, students must complete a 'Summer Internship' at an EPA facility between their junior and senior years. Both the public and private sectors will need a steady stream of well-trained environmental scientists and engineers if our society is to meet the environmental challenges of the future. Through its Office of Research and Development, the EPA is seeking to fulfill that need by offering financial assistance for undergraduate study in academic disciplines relevant to its mission at Culturally Diverse Academic Institutions. Each Intern must complete a summer project that is designed to complement and enhance the training received under the fellowship program. Support for tuition and fees will be paid directly to the institution.
