BIA opens applications for energy internship program
The Bureau of Indian Affairs is accepting applications for the Tribal Energy Student Internship Program.
Twelve post-secondary students will be selected for the program, which runs May 25 through August 6 at the Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago, Illinois. The application deadline is March 15.
“Indian Country’s young men and women are the future leaders of their tribal nations,” said
Assistant Secretary Larry Echo Hawk, “and as such they will play a critical role in shaping the future of tribal energy development. This internship program is intended to help prepare the next generation of tribal energy and natural resource management professionals.”
According to the BIA, interns will work with nationally known scientists in a wide range
of research fields including energy resource development, both renewable and non-renewable,
and environmental evaluation and analysis of potential impacts from energy resource
development activities.
