We are looking for motivated students interested in ecological field work—first timers welcome. Paid and internship positions are available for undergraduates to assist with a large ecological restoration project at the Cienega Springs Ecological Reserve in the Santa Clara River (Ventura County). Students will participate in all aspects of restoration including collecting, growing, and planting native plants, weed control, biological assessments, and related research data collection and analysis. Students will be expected to work 15–20 hours per week, split between greenhouse activities on campus and fieldwork at the reserve. Applicants must be able to lift 30 lb and tolerate working in hot conditions, as summer temperatures along the river often exceed 90 degrees. A valid driver's license and transportation (mileage paid) are helpful but not required.
