Paid Summer Internships

Paid Summer Internships

Lyon Arboretum is offering 4 paid summer internships. For the 2019 Summer Internship Program at Lyon Arboretum, interns will be provided with a unique experience spanning four participating departments.  Interns will each have a host department and will also participate in group activities twice a week.  Interns will gain valuable in-depth experience while working with their host department.  Group activity days will provide insight into the workings of other departments and their peers’ experiences.

On Mondays and Wednesdays, interns will work independently with their host departments, and Tuesdays and Thursdays will be group activity days.  On group activity days, the host department will introduce a particular topic in the mornings, and the afternoon will be dedicated to a group activity.  There will also be three all-day field trips: one to visit a sister botanical garden, an offsite service day, and a hike.
