Creating Leadership Through Extension Internships, Summer 2022

The University of Maryland Extension (UME) is seeking undergraduate students interested in careers in Extension and agriculture industries. 

Applications are open for the 2022 Creating Leadership and Professional Development Through Extension Internships Program. The deadline is 11:59 pm (EST) Tuesday, March 25th.  Apply if you are interested in a career in Extension or agriculture industries and want to learn more about Extension, applied research, and community outreach, while gaining leadership skills, and job experience. This is a great experiential learning opportunity for students seeking a degree or professional certification in agriculture, natural sciences, biological sciences, and related programs. We prioritize students currently enrolled in a two-year program and sophomores and juniors enrolled in a four-year degree program. This is a paid internship!
