Environmental Engineering Intern information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an environmental engineering intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Environmental Engineering Intern, you need a solid understanding of environmental science, engineering principles, and coursework toward a relevant degree. Familiarity with tools such as AutoCAD, GIS software, and environmental monitoring equipment is often required. Strong analytical thinking, effective communication, and teamwork skills help interns contribute meaningfully to projects and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams. These skills ensure interns can support environmental solutions, comply with regulations, and gain valuable experience for future roles.

What does an environmental engineering intern do?

An Environmental Engineering Intern supports professional engineers and scientists in projects that focus on improving environmental quality. Typical tasks may include collecting and analyzing environmental samples, assisting with report writing, conducting site assessments, and helping to design systems that minimize pollution. Interns gain hands-on experience in areas like water and air quality, waste management, and regulatory compliance. These roles are essential for applying classroom knowledge to real-world environmental challenges and preparing for a full-time career in environmental engineering.

Job description

THIS IS A NATIONAL GUARD TITLE 5 EXCEPTED SERVICE POSITION.
This National Guard position is for a ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER (TITLE 5), Position Description Number NGT5210000 and is part of the TN 134th ARW Air National Guard.Qualifications:SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE: Must have 1-year equivalent to at least next lower grade level experience, education, or training for management, supervision, or performance of (1) planning, designing, construction, and/or maintaining structures and facilities; and (2) investigating, measuring, surveying, and mapping the earth's physical features. Knowledge applicable to a wide range of environmental engineering duties; and the skill to modify standard practices and adapt equipment or techniques to solve a variety of problems; adapt precedents or make significant departures from previous approaches to similar projects to provide for the specialized requirements of projects; and apply standard practices of related engineering disciplines as they relate to environmental engineering functions. Knowledge of contract administration to negotiate and provide technical oversight, monitor vendor performance and ensure compliance with terms of contract. Knowledge of and skill in applying basic budgetary policies and procedures to provide a financial analysis of environmental resource requirements. Skill in preparing and presenting briefings/project papers, and staff reports; coordinating planning efforts; and managing program activities, to effectively communicate requirements with staff and line personnel to encourage understanding and acceptance of findings and recommendations, and to negotiate with high-level civil and military executives.
Education:A. Degree: Engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by ABET; or (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics.
OR
B. Combination of education and experience -- college-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following:
1. Professional registration or licensure -- Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT)1, or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions.
2. Written Test -- Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE)2 examination or any other written test required for professional registration by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico.
3. Specified academic courses -- Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in the basic requirements under paragraph A. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A.
4. Related curriculum -- Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor's degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. (The above examples of related curricula are not all inclusive.)
B. 2. 1. "Applicants who have passed the EIT examination and have completed all the requirements for either (a) a bachelor's degree in engineering technology (BET) from an accredited college of university that included 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences, or (b) a BET from a program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) may be rated eligible for certain engineering positions at GS-5. Eligibility is limited to positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of the engineering technology program. Applicants for positions that involve highly technical research, development, or similar functions requiring an advanced level of competence in basic science must meet the basic requirements in paragraph A."
B. 2. 2. "Because of the diversity in kind and quality of BET programs, graduates of other BET programs are required to complete at least 1 year of additional education or highly technical work experience of such nature as to provide reasonable assurance of the possession of the knowledge, skills, and abilities required for professional engineering competence. The adequacy of this background must be demonstrated by passing the EIT examination."
