From its research projects to events and learning programs, the University of Washington Bothell\u2019s Collaborative for Socio-Ecological Engagement<\/a> has grown its offerings considerably since it launched in 2024. And at the heart of this work \u2014 the engine that has supported this expansion along the way \u2014 is its internship program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer, CoSEE welcomed its largest cohort to date with 22 interns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCoSEE\u2019s internship program is designed not only to expand experiential learning for UW Bothell undergraduates but also to broaden the social and professional relationships through which students come to understand themselves and their communities as co-participants in socio-ecological decision-making,\u201d said Dr. Veronica Cassone McGowan, CoSEE director. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThrough sustained, place-based work with faculty, local agencies and community partners, students learn to recognize themselves as part of natural systems while contributing to decisions and collective practices that support ecological flourishing, strengthen community relationships and deepen connections across generations.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer\u2019s cohort worked along five pathways: geographic information systems, invasive species, native plants, environmental education and communications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tracking invasive species<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Interns on the GIS pathway developed mapping and data analysis skills while working on projects around the collaborative\u2019s headquarters at the Environmental Education & Research Center, a facility that opened in 2022 at Saint Edward State Park in Kenmore, Washington. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For his GIS internship, Junki Nakamura supported CoSEE\u2019s work on invasive species designed to protect and restore native ecosystems in the park. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCoSEE stood out to me because it connected my interest in hands-on GIS work with the environmental side of things,\u201d said Nakamura, a senior majoring in Data Visualization. \u201cWorking on it alongside my peers has opened my eyes to new capabilities of GIS I hadn\u2019t considered \u2014 especially how it can be used to inform and support local state parks.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nakamura has been building a digital map to track invasive species along a local trail. The goal is to create both a pre- and post-restoration map of the area, showing the work that needs to be done and the impact of the restoration once it\u2019s completed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis internship gives me direct, hands-on experience in the kind of applied skills I\u2019d need for a career working with a county on environmental or GIS-related projects,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s also strengthened my data analysis abilities, which ties directly into my Data Visualization major and opens the door to data analyst roles as well.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supporting native plants<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ruth Tesfaberhan began interning with CoSEE last fall quarter to do social media and has continued interning with the collaborative since then. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCoSEE has me coming back every quarter because fellow interns and Maddie Iem, the program manager, are super supportive and easy to work with,\u201d said Tesfaberhan, a senior majoring in Conservation & Restoration Science and minoring in GIS. \u201cI never feel bad asking questions or reaching out to other interns about project-related things. It\u2019s an amazing environment to learn and grow in.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer, as part of her capstone, her work has centered around the EERC\u2019S Native Plant Learning Garden restoration project. Tesfaberhan learned how to identify more than 30 different native plans, as well as some of their non-native counterparts. The work included watering and caring for native plantings, removing invasive weeds, and developing educational materials for visitors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m supporting the ongoing park improvement project, aimed at restoring the native learning plant garden into a space where the community can learn more about native plants and their role in our ecosystem,\u201d she said. \u201cThe garden\u2019s purpose is also to inspire people to plant native plants and engage the community in the interactive landscapes of the Pacific Northwest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI hope that by the end of my internship the garden becomes more known by the local community and environmental students as an example of native plant restoration.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fostering educational inclusivity<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After finishing her degree in Mathematics and her minor in Teaching & Learning in June 2026, Cassandra Humarang wanted to find an education-related internship \u2014 a difficult task during the summer months, she said. When she found that CoSEE was looking for summer interns to work on its growing Adaptive Library, it seemed a perfect fit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI specifically chose the environmental education internship since I want to become an elementary school teacher, and I wanted to have the opportunity to adapt children\u2019s books that would support interactive learning,\u201d Humarang said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Adaptive Library is a collection of children\u2019s books designed to make environmental and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) learning more accessible for learners with diverse communication and support needs. Humarang adapted several books to include more sensory aspects and ensure they align with the state\u2019s learning standards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMath has always been my favorite core subject, and I know it doesn\u2019t have a good overall reputation. One of my goals is to show that math is for everyone, it\u2019s everywhere, and it can be fun,\u201d she said. \u201cThe interactive books allow me to do this by thinking outside of the box and creating activities and elements relating to math that children may not realize.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Humarang led a story time event last month where attendees enjoyed hearing her read from one of the library\u2019s adapted books. They also engaged in nature-inspired crafts like making friendship bracelets and buttons. The attendees ranged from school-age children to educators \u2014 including a teacher who checked out three adaptive library books and requested materials for additional adapted books. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating opportunities to learn<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This year\u2019s larger intern cohort helps support CoSEE\u2019s existing programs, while also creating opportunities for growth. Leading the charge on many of these efforts is Maddie Iem, program manager. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMaddie has been instrumental in designing the organizational support structures that enable interns to thrive in their community-partnered work and to carry that learning into their educational and professional futures,\u201d Cassone McGowan said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She added that their five internship pathways not only prepare students for future careers but also help them develop the relationships, practices and forms of ecological responsibility needed to contribute meaningfully to the places and communities of which they are already a part. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI came into this internship with a lot of ideas about what restoration should look like and how to balance school, research and work,\u201d Tesfaberhan said. \u201cI learned a lot about myself working with CoSEE and grew not only as a student in conservation and restoration science but also as a person. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI would recommend this program to anyone who feels like there\u2019s always more to learn.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
