Professional Training
Another important part of our education efforst focuses on preparing the next generation of environmental sciences. SERC's internship program provides undergraduate and graduate students from around the world a chance to conduct environmental research with the guidance of a scientific mentor.

The postdoctoral fellowship program provides scientists at any career stage support for collaborative research with SERC scientists.

Fellows, interns and graduate students are important members of SERC's research team. They make substantial contributions to the Center's research effort while continuing their educations.
