Internships@Barr:
What Interns Do at Barr
Our interns tell us that what they like
most about Barr internships is the opportunity to learn by
doing. At Barr, they work on a variety of projects and perform
many different tasks. Some recent work that Barr interns have
done includes:
- structural design
- emissions testing
- field sampling
- data collection and analysis
- landscape design
- excavation oversight
- report preparation
- proposal assistance
Along with gaining real experience, Barr’s
interns are eligible to apply for the John Dickson Scholarship,
awarded to each year's outstanding interns. As an added bonus,
we often hire interns after they graduate—so your internship
at Barr could lead to a challenging and rewarding career here.

Barr.

“I would recommend a Barr internship
to others because the project managers do a great job
getting you involved with projects you are interested
in. It is a great way to see the environmental consulting
field.”
