Science Writing Internships

I was talking to a colleague at lunch about the recent NESCent Catalysis meeting I attended on communicating science. He mentioned that his daughter is an undergraduate studying both Chemistry and English, and asked if there were any opportunities for science writing internships.

Well, yes there are! Here are a few I was able to collect.
