The 2026 HBCU Environmental & Climate Justice Corps Summer Internship program

The Bullard Center’s HBCU Environmental and Climate Justice Corps Summer Internship program provided mentorship, training, and research opportunities for 20 undergraduate HBCU students from across the country during a five-week session focused on climate-related issues and associated impacts on vulnerable people of color communities. Students learned about research methodologies and were introduced to Geographic Information Systems (GIS), environmental and climate related tools and communication techniques that were instrumental in their community-focused research.

This paid summer program offers hands on research, field experiences, and community-focused work centered on climate justice and equity.  You will gain experience, build your resume, and connect with leaders working on urgent environmental and climate challenges.
