Be The First To Comment
NASA announced NASA’s DEVELOP Summer 2013 Internship Program for undergraduate and graduate students with an interest in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) or Remote Sensing. This is a paid 10-week internship program located at NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California that begins June 3, 2012 (for semester system) or June 17 (for quarter system).

Student teams research NASA science capabilities relevant to community concerns, create and complete projects using remote sensing and GIS techniques, and create advanced computer generated visualizations demonstrating research results. The activities are student-led, with mentors from NASA and partner organizations. Students of all majors are welcome to apply! Please see the attached flyer.

A stipend will be provided for selected students. Student housing options are also available on-site. Attached is a flyer to post in your department.
