Description:

These are great positions for students desiring an opportunity to gain professional experience. You will be given opportunities to perform a variety of assignments under the direction of professionals that will develop your knowledge of real-world hydrologic and hydraulic engineering projects on the Great Lakes. You will be given a chance to apply your knowledge and aptitude to solving problems. You can work part-time during school, for a semester, or during school breaks as best fits your situation.

A long-term benefit for those students who are able to work at least 640 hours prior to graduation is the potential to be non-competitively promoted into a permanent position, assuming a satisfactory work record. This eliminates the need to go through the normal Office of Personnel Management selection process to apply for a federal position.

We retain a high percentage of students under this program. They find that the experiences and knowledge they develop here, and the type of work they perform, are challenging and rewarding.
