Geosyntec Consultants - Part-time Environmental Engineering/Geology Intern

One of our alumni has notified us of a position opening at Geosyntec Consultants.

We are seeking a part time intern this summer in our Jacksonville office. It’s part time and in Jax but I think if the person lived in Gainesville they could maybe work it out to be 2 10-hour days or something and just commute in those days. The office is downtown so 1.5 hours from Gainesville or less.
