With the goal of connecting great students with exceptional opportunities, we are independently providing this broad, national, community-sourced directory for everyone to use. This resource helps students find opportunities that fit their identities and schedules. 

We encourage you to share and circulate the link to your students for this community sourced directory.  This is a best-effort by the Department of Earth, Environmental & Planetary Sciences  at Northwestern University.
