What is it is like to intern at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)? Ask a Student STEM Ambassador!

Student STEM Ambassadors motivate and inspire future interns by sharing their own PNNL internship experiences. Representing colleges and universities in different corners of the country, Student STEM Ambassadors connect with their peers through social media networks, career fairs, campus events, and other outreach activities.

Student STEM Ambassadors are trained volunteers who work closely with PNNL’s STEM education outreach team. They are equipped with tools and materials to raise awareness about the Community College Internships and Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internships programs, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science’s Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists program.
