All Day, Nov. 30, 2023

Interested in hydrology and atmospheric sciences? Want to learn and improve your graphic, video, and technology skills?

Apply now to be part of Water Whys Vertically Integrated Project (VIP) in Spring 2023!

Our team creates graphics that are used by TV meteorologists/journalists and shared on social media to help audiences understand critical issues like the drought's impact on Lake Mead and flash floods caused by wildfire. The main goal of our team has been to translate pressing water questions to graphical answers designed for the general public, where our produced graphics are then featured on TV and social media. Our team leading this project has expertise in hydrology, atmospheric science, graphic design, TV meteorology and science communication and students from a variety of disciplines are encouraged to join this multidisciplinary effort.

This one-credit independent study is open to all undergraduate and graduate students.

What are the requirements? No prior research experience or technical skills are required! Participants will virtually meet twice a week on Mondays from 10-11am and Fridays from 11am-noon

How do I apply? Please apply through this google form. The deadline is on November 31, 2023 at 11:59 PM AZ Time. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis!
