Year 2: Internship

In their second summer at DDCSP YSE, Scholars complete a seven-week internship at a conservation/environmental non-governmental organization or governmental agency. This experience gives scholars the chance to work directly with conservation and environmental professionals and develop a professional network. At the end of their second year, scholars present a brief talk on their internships at the Annual Capstone Symposium.
