Interns

Office of Sustainability Assistant 

The Office of Sustainability employs one student for 10-12 hours per week during the academic year as an assistant. The primary role of this internship is general support for the Office of Sustainability (OOS). While it is the most fluid in terms of defined responsibilities, this includes overseeing the OOS’s communication plan, attending weekly OOS meetings to stay connected with staff, managing data collection for AASHE STARS, performing research and benchmarking projects.
