The Hollings Undergraduate Scholarship Program provides
selected undergraduate applicants with a scholarship award (up to a maximum of $8,000) for two academic years of full-time
study and a 10-week, full-time internship ($650/week) during the
summer at a NOAA facility. The internship is conducted between the first and second
years of the award, and provides a “hands-on” multidisciplinary educational and
training experience involving student scholars in NOAA-related science, research,
technology, policy, management, and education activities. Awards also include
a mandatory NOAA orientation during the last week of May in the first year of
the scholarship award; a housing subsidy for student scholars who do not reside at
home during the summer internship; round-trip travel to the internship site
including reimbursement for incidentals; travel funds for attendance and
participation at a Hollings Scholarship program conference at the completion
of the internship; and, one professional conference to present the results of their summer project.
