NOAA launches new student opportunities database!

NOAA Education has launched a new student opportunities database that makes it easier than ever to search NOAA opportunities for students and recent graduates.

Three photos side-by-side. The first photo shows three students around a large piece of lab equipment. All three are focused on an instrument that one student appears to be inserting into the equipment. The second photo shows two children stand near a creek and look at a clipboard that holds papers about a watershed and its local wildlife. Photo three: An undergraduate scholar stands on a rocky shore and smiles at the camera, she's wearing a jacket, waders, and knee pads, and holds field equipment.

The new student opportunities database is a searchable database of more than 60 scholarships, fellowships, internships, youth programs, and more across NOAA and our partners. The database includes opportunities appropriate for kindergarten through graduate students and recent graduates.

Users can filter by grade level, type of opportunity, citizenship requirement, application period, and in-person and virtual opportunities.

“We hope this database makes it easier for students and young professionals to find out about the exciting opportunities NOAA has to offer. These opportunities can open the door to a future career in the NOAA workforce,” said Louisa Koch, Director of Education.
