The Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Research and Development seeks applications for an Environmental Research Apprenticeship Program to provide on-site training to undergraduate and graduate students at its research facility in Ada, Oklahoma. Eligible applicants include universities, nonprofits, state and local governments, and tribal organizations located in the U.S. and its territories. Successful applicants will design a five-year training program to place approximately 10 students per year at the EPA research center, providing financial support, matching trainees to research themes in areas like pollution prevention and greenhouse gas reduction, and overseeing training plans and safety requirements. Proposals will be evaluated based on educational merit, management approach, and applicant qualifications, and are due by May 15, 2024.
The EPA aims to award one cooperative agreement of up to $800,000 over five years to fund the student training program. Trainees will conduct their research and training directly at the EPA research facility in Ada, Oklahoma.
