I have some time to figure this out, but I figured here was as good a place as any, as I know we have people from a variety of work backgrounds on here, and maybe I can get lucky and not have to bust my :ahole trying to find someplace that will let me work for free.
In order to graduate, I must obtain an internship and work at least 180 hours during January-May of 2011, only stipulation is that it must be "environmental-related." How strictly that is defined, I'm not sure, but I have to get it approved prior to starting it anyways, so I'll consider about any idea now. If it's something that I can stay on with and get paid after I graduate in May, even better. I intend to go talk to SWFWMD and see if I can't get on with them, but that'll probably be a PITA. Ideas anyone? I have references that will vouch for me.
So far, I'm thinking something along the lines of water quality, wetland restoration (field time doubles as scouting=jackpot), toxic-waste recovery/cleanup or something like that. I'm not the type to go give pelicans a bath with Dawn dish soap, though. :clown
Great idea!
Good luck, Maybe someone can come up with something to help.
:nono I'm not sure, as I haven't spent much time in Orlando. I go to USF in Tampa, :clown. I'm sure there is something like that around. I'm sort of hoping to link up with a private company though, as I hate dealing with just about every government entity I have had to deal with...doubt it'd be any different. lol
Hey Vonnick I work for progress energy and we have enviromental people working at our power plants they deal mostly with water and air permits might want to check the website they may have internships available.
