CIRES is committed to being an inclusive, anti-oppressive, anti-racist organization. To this end, they are taking an organizational development approach which interrogates their policies, systems, institutional data, and practices to eradicate bias and exclusionary presumptions, where they may exist. They are working to develop a culture in which people have clear expectations, fair processes and systems, and positive support to bring their whole self to work.
The NOAA Global Systems Laboratory (GSL)/CIRES Summer 2023 Research Program is a paid summer research internship program open to undergraduate students, graduate students, and those who have applied or intend to apply to a graduate degree program for the 2023 academic year. They seek applicants who have interest in the research areas of the NOAA Global Systems Laboratory. The Global Systems Laboratory (GSL) is one of ten NOAA Research laboratories and is located in Boulder, Colorado. GSL research improves environmental prediction models, develops state-of-the-science decision support tools and visualization systems, and uses high-performance computing technology to support a Weather-Ready Nation.
The goal of the NOAA GSL CIRES Summer Research Program is to give interested students a research experience at the NOAA Global Systems Laboratory. Students with a variety of scientific and technical backgrounds can explore environmental or geosciences and learn more about how their skills can be applied to societal needs.
Up to 10 students will be accepted into the Summer 2023 program. Students will be paid to conduct environmental and geoscience research activities with CIRES and GSL scientists. Undergraduate interns will receive $750/week over 10 weeks (May 30-August 4) and graduate student interns will receive $1500/week over 10 weeks (May 30-August 4) paid biweekly.
The Summer 2023 program will be in person unless local COVID-19 levels and NOAA COVID protocols require a move to virtual. Students will be in residence in Boulder, CO with paid housing and travel in addition to their stipend.
