[ES_JOBS_NET] NASA SARP Earth Science Summer Internship: Southern California

[Emily Schaller]

Please pass along information about this program to undergraduate juniors
in your departments. We accept students majoring in any STEM discipline
with an interest in applying their background to study the Earth system
from onboard a NASA aircraft.

*NASA Student Airborne Research Program (SARP) 2018*

The NASA Airborne Science Program invites highly motivated advanced
undergraduates who will be rising seniors in summer 2018 to apply for
participation in the 10th annual NASA Student Airborne Research Program
(SARP 2018).  Students will work in multi-disciplinary teams to study
surface, atmospheric, and oceanographic processes. Participants will fly
onboard the NASA DC-8 and assist in the operation of instruments to sample
and measure atmospheric gases and to image land and water surfaces in
multiple spectral bands. Along with airborne data collection, students will
participate in taking measurements at field sites. Each student will
complete an individual research project from the data collected.

Outstanding faculty and staff for this program will be drawn from several
universities and NASA centers, as well as from NASA flight operations and
engineering personnel.

The eight-week program begins June 18, 2018 and concludes August 10, 2018.

Instrument and flight preparations, and the research flights themselves,
will take place during the first two weeks of the program at NASA’s
Armstrong Flight Research Center, in Palmdale, CA. Post-flight data
analysis and interpretation will take place during the final six weeks of
the program at the University of California, Irvine.

SARP participants will receive a $5,000 stipend, a travel allowance, and
free housing and local transportation during the 8-week program.
