The Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC) is offering summer
employment /internship positions in 2012 through its Bradford E. Brown
Student Internship Program. Named for a retired NOAA Fisheries scientist
who was a leader in introducing young people to fisheries science, the
program offers a limited number of paid summer positions during May to
September distributed across NEFSC programs and laboratories.
Research topics include population biology and dynamics,
resource assessment and environmental surveys, taxonomy, physical and
biological oceanography, social sciences, data management, larval
fish/plankton ecology, large marine ecosystems, aquaculture,
biotechnology, remote sensing, protected species and apex predators.
Further information about the Northeast Fisheries Science Center and
its research facilities is available online at: http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/aboutus.html
Pending available funding, summer positions are offered
throughout the Center’s six laboratories, which are located in Woods
Hole, Mass.; Narragansett, R.I.; Milford, Conn.; Highlands, N.J.,
Washington, D.C. and Orono, Maine. Summer positions are filled by
matching an applicant’s skills and interest with an appropriate area of
research within these laboratories. The 2012 list of summer
job/internship opportunities and all related information and

To participate in the internship program, applicants must be an
active full-time student or half-time undergraduate/graduate student at
a college or university for the upcoming 2012 school year at the time
of application, or be accepted as a full-time or half-time student in
