EMAP Internships
One of the unique features of the MS Environmental Metrology & Policy program is the program-funded 10-week summer internships at either the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is the Nation’s ultimate scientific authority in validating and upholding state-of-the-art measurements science and data–metrology; or the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which is the Nation’s top environmental policy making body. Through the program-funded summer internship and the ensuring guided independent research in the 2nd year of the program, the EMAP curriculum offers students a unique real-world experience of observing, learning or/and practicing evidence-based environmental policymaking after having taken the preparative foundational courses in their 1st year.
