“NGRREC’s intern program provides a unique research experience for undergraduate students in the greater St. Louis area,” said NGRREC Assistant Amy Monroe. “While some interns this semester are continuing research, they began in spring 2022; others are participating in projects that expand the scope of our program, including science communication and media relations.”
The fall intern class has eight members with two Lewis and Clark Community College (L&C) students participating in the internship program.
This semester’s internship program is funded by NGRREC, the Monticello College Foundation and the Living Earth Collaborative.
