The Summer 2022 OASE applications and list of participating businesses are live! Applications are due April 15, 2022 at 5pm. Oregon-based 3rd and 4th year undergraduates and graduate students are welcome to apply for OASE internships.

Since its pilot year in 2017, Oregon Sea Grant and the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality have administered the OASE program through funding obtained by an EPA Pollution Prevention grant. Third- and fourth-year college students and graduate students are recruited to conduct research that helps Oregon businesses reach their waste prevention and sustainability goals. Students are located at the business fulltime for 10 weeks during the summer. The EPA grant helps offset program costs, and intern stipends are administered by Oregon Sea Grant.

This is a win-win program that supports environmental workforce development, waste reduction, environmental protection and economic savings.
