We are currently seeking candidates for Summer 2026; see the Summer 2026 Internships post on our Careers page.

Internship Program

S.S. Papadopulos and Associates, Inc. (SSP&A) supports a paid internship program (Summer Internships and Work/Study Internships) in our offices in Rockville, Maryland; Boulder, Colorado; and San Francisco, California. For over 25 years, SSP&A has worked with cooperative education and internship programs in schools across the U.S. and Canada to provide real-world experience to students and to foster an interest in hydrologic sciences and environmental remediation.

We are now accepting applications for Summer 2026 Internships. 

What to Expect

Interns fully participate in SSP&A's ongoing projects. Our work includes the investigation and remediation of groundwater and soil contamination, regional aquifer analysis and water supply development, and computer modeling of hydrologic systems. Interns assist senior personnel in the interpretation of geochemical and/or hydrologic data related to remediation of water resource investigations. Tasks will include compilation, analysis, and display (including GIS) of temporal and spatial data.

In addition, interns with an interest in hydrogeology will be exposed to a variety of analytical and numerical models for the simulation of groundwater flow and solute transport.

What You Bring

Although SSP&A interns are not required to have prior experience, an interest in hydrology or geochemistry is desirable.
