sources for Utah's people and wildlife. Founded in 1995, we work to protect
Utah's rivers and clean water sources for today's citizens, future generations
and healthy, sustainable natural ecosystems. We are an advocacy organization
dedicated to social change for the benefit of Utahs rivers and the many
generations of life they support.

The Utah Rivers Council is seeking an intern for the Spring 2013 Semester to

campus-wide, multi-departmental effort to institute permanent water conservation
at the U of U through a mixture of education, technology and policy change.

survey). The skills required for this internship include:


Experience building web-based apps using JavaScript or PHP (or equivalent)

Knowledge of HTML and CSS

and, ideally but not required, Flash or HTML5 (or equivalent)

This internship is an excellent introduction into the world of non-profit
environmental work and a good opportunity to network with professionals in the
environmental arena. The student will gain a glimpse into what a career with an
environmental organization entails.

We request a minimum commitment of 2-3 credit hours with 6-9 hours of work per
week. Scheduling is flexible within regular 9-5 business hours.
