The USDA Forest Service is committed to ensuring that its future work force reflects our nation's increasingly diverse labor force. Thus, the National Multicultural Recruitment Initiative Program at Alabama A&M University is one strategy the USDA Forest Service is utilizing to realize that goal.
The primary purpose of the program is to attract students who traditionally have been under-represented in the field of forestry and other natural resource
sciences (e.g., botany, environmental and plant and soil sciences). Financial awards of
$5,000 per year are available for each undergraduate student who meets the eligibility criteria. Additionally, the program provides paid work experience and a portion of travel expenses to and from summer assignments.
