The
U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Research and Extension Experiential Learning
for Undergraduates summer internship program allows students to complete
meaningful projects in the UK College
of Agriculture, Food and Environment. Internships are based at
either the UK Research and Education Center in
Princeton or at UK’s main campus in Lexington.
Students
can choose from projects in plant pathology, entomology, and plant and soil
sciences. Interns will take ownership of the project and learn from UK
scientists how to conduct scientific research, analyze their findings and use
their data to develop a professional research poster and report. They will
present their findings during the UK Corn, Soybean and Tobacco Field Day in July
in Princeton. In addition to conducting research, they will increase their

Extension Service.
