Student Opportunities at National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is currently advertizing two student programs for students in oceanic, environmental, biological and atmospheric sciences, mathematics, engineering, remote sensing, physical and social sciences including geography, physics, hydrology, geomatics, or teacher education. Many of the disciplines NOAA employees study overlap with USDA.
The Hollings Scholarship brings approximately 100 students to DC every summer for a scholarship/internship program. NOAA is looking to diversify their candidate pool as a very small percentage of students awarded are minorities.

The Educational Partnership Program Undergraduate Scholarship is for students from Minority-Serving Institutions, including HSIs. Includes an academic scholarship and internship.
