How much do environmental science intern jobs pay per hour?
What is the difference between Environmental Science Intern vs Environmental Technician?
| Aspect | Environmental Science Intern | Environmental Technician |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Typically pursuing or recent graduate in environmental science or related field | Associate's or bachelor's degree in environmental science, environmental technology, or related field |
| Work Environment | Academic settings, research projects, or entry-level fieldwork | Fieldwork, sampling, data collection, and site assessments |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Universities, research institutions, government agencies, NGOs | Environmental consulting firms, government agencies, industrial sites |
Environmental Science Interns are usually students gaining experience through internships, focusing on research and learning. Environmental Technicians perform hands-on fieldwork and data collection in real-world settings. While both roles support environmental projects, Interns are more learning-focused, whereas Technicians are more operational and field-oriented.

Job description
The Architect of the Capitol is seeking a highly qualified and experienced Supervisory Environmental Engineer to serve within the Office of Safety and Code Compliance, Environmental Division. The incumbent serves as the Deputy Director and as a senior technical and supervisory authority responsible for leading environmental compliance, environmental engineering, pollution prevention, permitting and environmental management programs affecting facilities and operations across the Capitol Complex.
Qualifications:You must meet the United States Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) qualification requirements (including specialized experience and/or educational requirements) for the advertised position. You must meet all eligibility and qualifications requirements by the closing date of the job announcement. Additional information on the qualification requirements is outlined in the OPM Qualifications Standards Handbook of General Schedule Positions. It is available for your review on the OPM web site at OPM qualification standards
Specialized experience:Â is experience that has equipped you with the particular knowledge, skills and abilities to perform successfully the duties of the position, and that is typically in or related to the position to be filled. To be creditable, specialized experience must have been equivalent to at least the next lower grade level.
Candidates for the GS-14 grade level must have at least 52 weeks of specialized experience equivalent to the next lower (GS-13) grade level in the Federal service.Â
Specialized experience for this position is having experience that demonstrates all of the following:
- Managing or overseeing environmental engineering or environmental compliance programs;
- Interpreting and applying Federal, state, or local environmental laws and regulations;
- Interacting with regulators and industry peers or counterparts;
- Leading environmental projects involving permitting, compliance inspections, pollution prevention, environmental assessments, or sustainability initiatives;
- Providing technical guidance related to environmental engineering, environmental protection, or regulatory compliance; and
- Supervising staff, leading teams, or managing environmental program operations.
In addition to meeting the specialized experience requirements for this position, applicants must possess the following:
Education Required for Engineers:
A. Bachelor's degree in professional engineering: To be creditable, the program must: (1) be in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) as a professional engineering curriculum; 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: statics, dynamics;(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 professional 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:
- Professional registration or licensure -- Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT), 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.
- Written Test -- Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) 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.
- 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.
- 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.)Â
For a detailed explanation of the related curriculum or experience, please visit the following website at https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/classification-qualifications/general-schedule-qualification-standards/0800/files/all-professional-engineering-positions-0800.pdf
You must provide an official transcript before appointment.
There is no educational substitution at this grade level.
Special Instructions for Foreign Education:Â
Education completed outside of the United States must be deemed equivalent to that gained in conventional/accredited U.S. education programs to be acceptable for Federal employment.
Qualifying education from colleges and universities in foreign countries must be evaluated in terms of equivalency to that acquired in U.S. colleges and universities. Applicants educated in whole or in part of foreign countries must submit sufficient evidence, including transcripts, to an accredited private organization for an equivalency evaluation of course work and degree.
You must provide a copy of the letter containing the results of the equivalency evaluation with a course by course listing if selected.
