Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks Botany Internship 

A collaborative partnership between the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History Herbarium (COLO) and the City of Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks Department (OSMP) has been initiated to further the study of plant diversity across the OSMP land system. The COLO Herbarium and the other sections of the University of Colorado Museum serve as one of the primary resources for documentation and study of the rich natural history and biodiversity of Colorado. OSMP manages more than 36,000 acres and seeks to build on their intellectual and physical (small herbarium) resources through this collaborative effort which contributes to forest and grassland management by the City of Boulder. The partnership consists of two components: 1) an Internship sponsored by the OSMP Department focused upon the summer field season, and 2) an Independent Study sponsored by the COLO Herbarium.
