C-StREAM Internship Presentations

Date and Time

Purpose
Join us to hear all about the great work of the three Chesapeake StREAM Program Students that have been working with us here at the Chesapeake Bay Program this summer. C-StREAM stands for Chesapeake Student Recruitment Early Advisement and Mentoring and its primary purpose is to increase the workforce for environmental restoration by finding, inspiring, and mentoring talented college students – focusing primarily from previously under-represented groups – toward careers in environmental protection and restoration. The program strives to engage the student through extended involvement in interesting projects with multiple mentors — from both their home institution and one or more CRC members or other C-StREAM partnering institutions — in a program of longer-term advisement and assistance. The Chesapeake Bay Program partnered with CRC to roll out a "pilot summer" of this program this summer and in total, we supported 4 C-StREAM Program Students: three here at the Chesapeake Bay Program Office and one at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC). We've had a great first summer, learned a lot and are looking forward to continuing this program here and expanding the opportunities within the watershed in summers to come.
