The USDA Forest Service is hiring temporary student trainees (interns) across the nation, including in the Allegheny National Forest.
Located in the western portion of the Pennsylvania Wilds, the Allegheny National Forest (ANF) is Pennsylvania’s only National Forest and is home to open skies, rolling mountains, and seemingly endless forest. Established in 1923, the ANF covers 517,000 acres. The Allegheny National Forest’s motto “Land of Many Uses” speaks to the balance of outdoor recreation, watershed protection, wildlife habitat management, and sustainable forestry practices.
Internships are available in social sciences, administrative support, natural resources, engineering, and other exciting and rewarding career paths. As part of this national hiring event, Allegheny National Forest plans to bring on a total of 10 student interns in one of six career fields.
For the Supervisor’s Office, they will hire an engineering intern. For the Bradford Ranger District, they will hire two Archeology Interns, two Natural Resources Management and Biological Sciences Interns (Timber), and a Natural Resources Management and Biological Sciences Intern (Biological Science). For the Marienville Ranger District, they will hire an Administration and Office Support Intern, a Natural Resources Management and Biological Sciences Intern (Timber), a Natural Resources Management and Biological Sciences Intern (Recreation), and a Natural Resources Management and Biological Sciences Intern (Biological Science).
