Summer Interns

CIIT's summer internship program was introduced in 1989 to encourage promising college students to consider careers in the sciences. Under the guidance of scientific staff, interns are exposed to various facets of on-going research projects at CIIT and The Hamner, including literature review, conduct of experiments, data analysis, and interpretation of results. Many of the past summer interns have gone on to earn graduate degrees in toxicology and related fields. The application deadline is March 1st of the year prior to the summer program.

Cooperative Education Students

The Hamner cooperative education program gives undergraduate students the opportunity to integrate their academic studies with related job experience at The Hamner. Co-op students learn research methods and laboratory procedures under the mentorship of Hamner senior scientists and their research teams.
