Information for organizations interested in hosting a college student intern: Student Summer Internship Host Information Gabrielle James was an ITEP intern in summer 2021 with the North Central Climate Adaptation Science Center based in Boulder, Colorado. She did research on a couple of specific projects that tribes were working
on such as beaver mimicry and research on how climate change impacts Native American health.
Gabrielle had the following to say about her internship experience, "Following the completion of the internship, I am entering
my final year of my undergraduate education and I am strongly considering looking for and applying to jobs that are in related fields. As a Diné student about to graduate, this research experience was invaluable as I’m
also about to write my senior thesis and final projects based on what I’ve learned through this internship. Future interns should consider an ITEP internship because my knowledge of Tribal climate adaptation work has
increased more than I thought it would at the start of my internship, and I have a desire to pursue a career in a related field."
