Job Description:

BLM Arizona Geospatial Program is providing an opportunity for a DHA-RAI intern to support natural resource management through the creation and use of web-enabled geospatial mapping and work with BLM resource specialists for data collection/improved data management. The assigned work would support BLM’s vision to create, analyze, and disseminate accurate, user friendly information on BLM Arizona’s public land resources. Working as an intern within the AZ State Office Resource Information Branch (AZ-952), the intern would be exposed to a variety of natural resource fields including work completed by the Division of Resources & Planning (AZ-930), Division of Lands, Minerals, & Energy (AZ-920) and Division of Public Affairs & Communication (AZ-912). Interns would also become familiar with working effectively as a member of a team despite potentially stressful and difficult conditions, and effectively communicating ideas and concerns as they arise to supervisors, colleagues, and BLM staff. In addition to gaining valuable hands-on experience in a fast-paced exciting environment, interns would also have the opportunity to request work projects in their particular area of interest. BLM AZ-952 is interested in providing this internship as a way to expose new college students/graduates to BLM’s land management work where it utilizes geospatial technology, a framework for data organization in land-based agencies when they leverage GIS’s locational intelligence properties.

Preferred Majors:

Geography, Geographic Info Sciences, Urban Planning, Geology, or related discipline
