Good Afternoon Geographers and Sustainers - Please see the update on the changed deadline for the internships with NASA. These are now due on February 2. MC From: Lucey, Ronan M. (MSFC-ST11)[UAH] <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2024 4:07 PM To: Camponovo, Michael <[log in to unmask]> Subject: RE: [EXTERNAL] RE: NASA MSFC Disasters Internship Opportunities for Summer 2024 Hey Michael, An important update to pass on to your students - NASA has changed the application deadline for these summer student internship opportunities to February 2, 2024, which is this Friday. Please encourage your students to apply for these internship opportunities as soon as possible. If the system continues to allow applications to be submitted after February 2, students can continue to apply after this date, but applying by the deadline is preferable! And yes, we were iced in here in Huntsville for a week, which was certainly abnormal. Thankfully warmer temperatures are here now!

(MSFC-ST11)[UAH] <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> Sent: Monday, January 29, 2024 2:27 PM To: Camponovo, Michael <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> Subject: NASA MSFC Disasters Internship Opportunities for Summer 2024 Hey Michael, I hope that this email finds you well! I wanted to let you know about summer internship opportunities that we currently have posted for students this summer here at NASA MSFC: Remote Sensing for Disaster Applications (in-person at MSFC - Huntsville, Alabama): https://stemgateway.nasa.gov/s/course-offering/a0B3d000001hTDVEA2/remote-sensing-for-disaster-applications Remote Sensing for Disaster Applications (virtual): https://stemgateway.nasa.gov/s/course-offering/a0B3d000001hhBeEAI/remote-sensing-for-disaster-applications-virtual Internship Description for the above two internships: The Earth Science Branch at Marshall Space Flight Center has supported the use of remote sensing and other NASA information in response to natural hazard monitoring and disaster response since 2011, and continues this work in support of NASA's Disaster Response Coordination System, or DRCS. To address disaster response needs, Marshall scientists engage in a number of research and application development activities examining how remote sensing approaches can be applied to detection of land surface change from severe weather, floods, high winds, tornadoes and hail, and work collaboratively with other NASA Centers examining other events such as earthquakes, landslides, and volcanic eruptions. This internship opportunity will provide interested students the opportunity to explore the use of remote sensing in response to these events, helping validate and verify current approaches and/or explore new alternatives using image analysis, artificial intelligence and machine learning, or other approaches. Another opportunity not specifically related to Disasters that I wanted to make you aware of: History of Student Engagement in Earth Science (in-person at MSFC - Huntsville, Alabama): https://stemgateway.nasa.gov/s/course-offering/a0B3d000001aJtCEAU/history-of-student-engagement-in-the-earth-science-branch Internship Description: The Earth Science Branch at Marshall Space Flight Center has a long history of supporting students through various internship and fellowship programs offered by NASA. Many of our students go on to pursue continuing education in graduate research programs locally or nationwide, find employment in the private sector, participate in academic institutions, or join us as NASA federal employees. This internship opportunity will help our organization take inventory of the students who have historically participated in these programs, to help us quantify the beneficial impacts to our Earth Science research and application activities, to inform our longer-term strategies for recruitment and retention, and to help NASA see the benefits of these programs to supporting the STEM pipeline. Please pass these opportunities on to your students! Please also note that the application deadline for each of these internships is February 16, 2024. Thank you, and please let me know if you have any questions!
