The Chair of EHS, Andrew Maynard is in urgent need of a student who can help pull together a policy analysis/report from Prof. Sridhar Kota’s shale gas meeting on March 28 (http://iml.umich.edu/?page=symposium).

It is paid, and what is needed is someone who has an interest in the area, has some sense of the technical/business issues involved, but most importantly knows how to write a tight policy brief. The role will also necessitate an all expenses paid trip to DC for the lucky student!

This seems like a fantastic opportunity, particularly for those in this group. If you are interested, please contact Professor Bowman ([email protected]) directly.
