Summary
The ASLO Science Communication Internship program was launched in 2015 to provide current or recent graduate students in the aquatic sciences with the opportunity to learn more about science communication, as a discipline and as a possible career path. ASLO Science Communication interns are mentored by ASLO Director of Communications and Science Adrienne Sponberg in the ASLO Communications Office (metropolitan Washington, D.C.). Internships are typically for a 12-week period and come with a stipend and travel support so the intern may attend an ASLO conference. ASLO Science Communication Interns work on a wide variety of communication projects in the areas of Policy, Education, and Public Outreach to get a first-hand look at how science is communicated to a variety of audiences. Policy. Get a first-hand look at how policy is formulated in the U.S. during the Geosciences Congressional Visits Day and by attending hearings and topical briefings on Capitol Hill. Education and Outreach. Contribute to aquatic science education and outreach by participating with ASLO’s committees, the COSEE Consortium and the Consortium of Aquatic Science Societies (CASS). Scientific Writing and Publishing. Hone science writing skills by preparing material for ASLO’s social media channels and the L&O Bulletin. Learn about the publishing and editorial process as an issue of the L&O Bulletin is compiled and sent to press.
