Education - Higher Education and Internships

Internships
Many students have gained practical experience in coastal research, education and outreach through Sea Grant sponsored internships. Most interns are paid and some students earn college credit. All of our interns gain professional experience to help launch their careers. In the Erie office, our largest need is for assistance with teaching and research in the summer, however, some interns work during the spring and fall semesters. For more information, contact Sean Rafferty in the Erie office. In the Delaware Estuary region, contact Ann Faulds.

Graduate & Undergraduate Coursework
The Regional Science Consortium at the Tom Ridge Environmental Center is an organization dedicated to coordinating educational and research opportunities for the Lake Erie and the upper Ohio River basins. The consortium offers a number of lab and field courses taught by nationally recognized instructors. Participants can obtain course credit from a number of Consortium colleges.
