What is an internship environmental chemistry?

An Internship in Environmental Chemistry is a temporary position where students or recent graduates gain hands-on experience in analyzing environmental samples, conducting lab experiments, and assisting with research on pollutants and their effects. Interns may work in laboratories, government agencies, or environmental organizations, helping to test air, water, and soil quality. This role provides practical exposure to environmental regulations, analytical techniques, and data interpretation. It is an excellent opportunity to apply academic knowledge to real-world environmental challenges while developing technical and problem-solving skills.

What do internship environmental chemistry interns do?

Interns in environmental chemistry often assist with sample collection, preparation, and analysis in the laboratory, supporting research on topics such as water, air, or soil quality. You may be tasked with running analytical equipment, recording and interpreting data, and helping maintain lab safety protocols. Interns frequently work alongside experienced chemists and environmental scientists, gaining practical experience in both independent tasks and collaborative projects. This hands-on work not only helps build your technical skills but also provides valuable insight into how environmental research informs regulatory decisions and sustainable practices.

What skills and qualifications are needed for an internship environmental chemistry?

To thrive as an Internship Environmental Chemistry, you typically need a background in chemistry, environmental science, or a related field, along with foundational laboratory skills. Familiarity with analytical instruments such as gas chromatography, spectrophotometry, and laboratory information management systems (LIMS) is often expected. Strong attention to detail, effective communication, and teamwork are essential soft skills for success in this position. These competencies ensure interns can accurately conduct experiments, document results, and collaborate with colleagues on environmental research projects.

FLEXSYS

Akron, OH

Internship

Re-posted 2 days ago

Job description

Description

We are seeking a highly motivated Ph.D. candidate in Organic Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, Process Chemistry, or a related discipline to join our synthetic and process chemistry team. This internship is designed for 4th- or 5th-year doctoral students with a proven track record of research excellence and strong laboratory execution.


The successful candidate will contribute to both synthetic route development and process optimization activities, working closely with experienced chemists to advance challenging chemistry programs from bench-scale synthesis through process development.


Key Responsibilities

  • Design and execute multi-step organic syntheses.
  • Develop and optimize synthetic routes for target molecules and intermediates.
  • Investigate reaction conditions, scale-up considerations, and process robustness.
  • Analyze reaction outcomes using standard analytical techniques (NMR, LC-MS, HPLC, GC, etc.).
  • Maintain accurate laboratory records and effectively communicate research findings.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional scientists to solve synthetic and process-related challenges.

Requirements

  • Currently enrolled in a Ph.D. program in Organic Chemistry, Process Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, or a closely related field.
  • Preferred 4th- or 5th-year Ph.D. student with demonstrated research productivity.
  • Strong foundation in synthetic organic chemistry and reaction mechanism understanding.
  • Proven ability to independently plan and execute complex multi-step syntheses.
  • Publication record in peer-reviewed scientific journals.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and organizational skills.
  • Ability and willingness to temporarily relocate to Akron, Ohio for the duration of the internship.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in process chemistry, route scouting, reaction optimization, or scale-up activities.
  • Familiarity with Design of Experiments (DoE) or process development principles.
  • Experience troubleshooting challenging synthetic transformations.

What You'll Gain

  • Hands-on experience in an industrial synthetic/process chemistry environment.
  • Exposure to route development, scale-up strategies, and process optimization.
  • Mentorship from experienced synthetic and process chemists.
  • Opportunity to make meaningful contributions to active research and development programs
