The MES program is a paid summer internship that provides exposure research in the areas of environmental science, environmental justice, and environmental policy to underrepresented college students. The MES program actively recruits qualified undergraduates from Historically Black Colleges, Tribal Colleges and Universities, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, and other minority-serving institutions for extensive training that will direct them toward gainful employment in various research and management positions within DOE.
