Description
The Cooperative Institute for Modeling the Earth System (CIMES) at Princeton University in collaboration with NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) recruits students for 8-9 week research internships in atmospheric, oceanic and earth system science. Interns will work on a focused scientific problem under the close supervision of their GFDL/Princeton host, and benefit from resources and activities at GFDL, including interaction with scientists and graduate students, access to high performance computing and library facilities, and opportunities to participate in a wide range of seminars and GFDL social events.

Interns will receive a stipend of $5,600 - $7,000 for a 40-hour work week; depending on the length of the internship. Starting dates and length of the internship are flexible depending on host availability. On campus housing is typically made available to interns from late May to late July and is provided as part of the program. Interns not living at home but using housing other than campus housing will receive a commensurate housing allowance. Interns will also receive reimbursement for travel to and from Princeton.
