STAP Internship Title:<\/b> Student Sustainability Coordinator<\/span><\/p>\n

Students may engage with additional research projects with ENVS faculty, pursue environmental activism efforts, help manage OWU\u2019s Green Week, May Move Out, and other initiatives. Two students who previously held the position were authors on research papers published in part based on work undertaken while in a STAP position. The 2019-20 coordinator was awarded a PhD level graduate fellowship with full funding.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unique Responsibilities:<\/b> This position, as described above, is literal career training in that it requires passion and competence while allowing the student to pursue and develop important, practical skills. In addition, some previous students have used this position to engage in research, publication, and use the experience as a springboard to graduate school. Responsibility, leadership, motivation, and working for the better good of the environment and sustainability on campus and beyond are central to this position.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
