Internship Info Session: CA Department of Water Resources

Department of Water Resources (DWR) was established in 1956 by the California State Legislature. We manage California’s water resources, systems, and infrastructure, including the State Water Project, in a responsible sustainable way.

At DWR, we are embedding climate change response into every project we undertake. We have set standards to help evaluate how each project incorporates climate resilience principles and ensure consistency across the Department. Our mission is to sustainably manage the water resources of California, in cooperation with other agencies, to benefit the state’s people and protect, restore, and enhance the natural and human environments.

DWR also strives to create a trusting and welcoming workplace where employees embrace diverse viewpoints and treat each other with civility and respect. An important component of DWR’s equal employment opportunity program centers around diversity, equity, and inclusion.

In addition, DWR offers a Student Employment Program, designed to acquaint students with our work and employment opportunities. You can gain on-the-job training in your chosen academic field if you are enrolled in high school, college, or any recognized school of learning.

We may hire college students with a declared major as student assistants working in their technical field including but not limited to: biology, engineering, information technology, and more. Join us for this virtual session and learn about the opportunities available to you!
