Hello CSc students,

Please see the summer research opportunity below (flyers attached):

 



I am writing to inform you about 10-week paid research opportunities
with the NASA DEVELOP National Program, open to current undergraduate,
graduate, and phD students alongside recent college graduates as well
as transitioning/early career professionals. Please pass this
information, along with the attached flyer, to your students and those
who may be interested.

NASA DEVELOP projects focus on helping local and international
communities address their environmental concerns while utilizing
NASA's Earth observing fleet of satellites. NASA DEVELOP operates at
eleven locations across the country at NASA Centers and other regional
locations. This is a great opportunity for participants who are
interested in practical applications of remote sensing and GIS,
specifically in the field of Earth Science. Participants will work
with NASA scientists, partner organizations, and science advisors to
learn about the use of NASA Earth science data for use in water
resources, disaster management, ecological forecasting, and other
applications to address environmental community concerns.

Responsibilities will include: literature review, data processing and
analysis, and producing deliverables, such as a technical report,
presentation, and video. Previous GIS or remote sensing knowledge,
while beneficial, is not required for acceptance. This is a
multi-disciplinary opportunity for all those interested in Earth
science and we encourage those in the social sciences, general
science, engineering, computer science, etc. to apply.

Applicants must have excellent verbal and written communication skills
and be able to work in a fast-paced, highly collaborative environment.
Days of the week are flexible, but applicants should be able to commit
to 20 – 29 hours per week during the term. The position is paid on an
hourly basis that is determined by education level.

Details about this opportunity and how to apply can be found online at
https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fappliedsciences.nasa.gov%2Fwhat-we-do%2Fcapacity-building%2Fdevelop&data=05%7C01%7Cxhu%40gsu.edu%7C5b614ec763f54d9ba53a08da3843bbdb%7C515ad73d8d5e4169895c9789dc742a70%7C0%7C0%7C637884161171839035%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C2000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=PghRoL0jBYzuw05jRn5tAAzQcN%2Fjn%2FH1u7HHz%2B1pWTE%3D&reserved=0.
The Fall 2022 position application window will be open online from May
16th through June 24th, with the term starting September 12th and
lasting through November 18th. Please note some DEVELOP locations will
allow for in-person opportunities while others will be completely
virtual. For virtual locations, all accepted participants must work
remotely from within the United States. Details on location status
will be posted on our website when the application opens.

We are hosting virtual “About DEVELOP” webinars on Wednesday, May 25th
@ 3 pm ET and Thursday, May 26th @ 11 am ET in an effort to provide
information about our program and how interested candidates can apply
and participate in the program (see attached recruiting webinar flyer
for details).
