White House Council on Environmental Quality

Other

Washington DC

The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) coordinates federal environmental efforts and works closely with agencies and other White House offices in the development of environmental policies and initiatives. The Council's Chair serves as the principal environmental policy adviser to the President. CEQ is also responsible for ensuring that Federal agencies operate in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The challenge of harmonizing our economic, environmental and social aspirations has put NEPA and CEQ at the forefront of our Nation's efforts to protect the environment. CEQ interns are given a wide range of assignments including conducting research, managing incoming inquiries, attending meetings, and writing memos on a variety of environmental issues. Interns have the opportunity to be involved in groundbreaking projects, working closely with staff from all levels and backgrounds. The pace in the office is fast, so accuracy and attention to detail are absolute requirements. Interns can expect to begin with the basics and gradually add more specialized projects as they gain experience. Internship opportunities are available on the following teams: Office of Energy & Climate Change, Office of Land & Water Ecosystems, Office of Climate Preparedness, Office of NEPA Oversight, Office of Legislative Affairs, Office of Public Engagement, Office of Climate Preparedness, Office of Communications, Office of Federal Sustainability, and Office of the Chief of Staff.
