The Water Quality Research and Development Center at the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA; www.snwa.com) is actively recruiting applicants for two paid graduate internships in Las Vegas, Nevada. The situation is unique in that the students would work in SNWA’s R&D lab but remain graduate students in their current academic program. The duration of each position is tentatively for 12 months, although it is somewhat flexible and could extend for up to 2 years. The interns would be expected to assist with projects generally related to emerging contaminants in drinking water and wastewater systems. While the students’ primary responsibilities during their tenure would be to assist in laboratory experimentation for SNWA projects, there would be latitude for pursuing individual research interests. Ideally, the SNWA projects would overlap with the students’ research interests, but this is not essential.
