Yosemite National Park - Internships (U.S. National Park Service)

Most of our internships are filled through the Student Conservation Association [search for Yosemite internships].

About 10 Yosemite Leadership Program internships will be available in 2009 for UC Merced undergraduate students only.

The park also hires a GeoCorps intern each year for field work from around November through March.

Some volunteer positions (listed below) may be appropriate as internships. Additional opportunities could be added at any time, so keep checking. Most, but not all, positions are for the summer months.
