One of the most important things you can do during your undergraduate experience is gain experience in fields that you think you might eventually want to work in. There are lots of seasonal opportunities available. Below is a short list of job sites and fellowship opportunities. This list is just a start - please email jason.johnston'at'umpi.edu if you find other sites that should be listed here.
