NEW! Roundhouse Foundation Marine Studies Program Innovation Lab Scholarship and Internship Fund

The Roundhouse Foundation Marine Studies Innovation Lab Scholarship supports Oregon State University undergraduate students in their second year or more of study who are participating in a paid internship with the Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC) Innovation Lab (iLab) in Newport, Oregon.  Recipients will be students in any college at Oregon State University who are interested in developing the programs and operations of the HMSC iLab.  Students are considered for both the internship and the scholarship based on their application for the scholarship.

The internship includes a Roundhouse Foundation Marine Studies Innovation Lab Scholarship award for the Winter and Spring terms, a paid hourly position at the HMSC iLab during the Winter, Spring, and Fall terms (approximately 8 hours per week), a paid position with a stipend for housing at HMSC during the Summer term, and access to up to $1,000 that can be used for supplies, travel, etc. to support iLab-related projects.

Are you a student seeking an internship focused on coastal or ocean issues?

 

If yes, we are excited to help you find an opportunity.

Our goal in the Marine Studies Initiative is to work with programs across campus and develop more opportunities for learning outside the classroom, including internships that give students research and career experiences locally, nationally, and internationally. 

Internships are typically short-term work assignments related to your major or career interests. Completing an internship is an excellent way to develop the hands-on skills and professionalism needed for a successful transition into the work place.
