Bat Monitoring Assistant job with NPS Mojave Desert Network
Position Title: Bat Monitoring Assistant - AmeriCorps
Conservation Legacy Program: Stewards Individual Placements
Site Location:
Mojave Desert I&M Network Office
101 Katzenbach Drive
Boulder City, NV 89005
Application Timeline: Preference given to applicants who submit applications by October 2, 2026. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
Terms of Service:
Ideal Start Date: January 11, 2027
End Date: July 9, 2027
AmeriCorps Slot Classification: 900 hours, 26 weeks
Purpose:
Stewards Individual Placements (Stewards), a program of Conservation Legacy, provides individuals with AmeriCorps service and career opportunities to strengthen communities and preserve our natural resources. Participants serve with federal agencies, tribal governments, and nonprofits to provide institutional capacity, develop community relationships, and support ecosystem health. Stewards in partnership with the NPS Mojave Desert Inventory & Monitoring Network (MOJN) will host a Bat Monitoring Assistant.
The Bat Monitoring Assistant is an AmeriCorps position that will assist in collecting and managing data about bats within the parks of the Mojave Desert Network (MOJN). The MOJN is one of 32 Monitoring Networks across the NPS, using information gathered for planning, research, education, and to help guide decisions related to park management. For more information see their website: https://www.nps.gov/im/mojn/index.htm
This position will serve the public by supporting long term monitoring of bats and ensuring that data is collected using sound science and making that data available to the public. This position helps support the Gold Standard of Science Executive Order (EO 14303). Some bat species in the eastern United States have been declining due to White-Nose Syndrome (WNS) for almost 20 years. The fungus responsible for WNS has now spread across most of the country and has recently been detected within the Mojave Desert. Less is known about the impact of WNS within the western US, so monitoring of populations is essential in better identifying which species may be impacted and provide park managers with the most up to date information when making management decisions.
The purpose of this position is to assist the bat monitoring crew lead with implementation of the MOJN bat monitoring plan for the 2027 season which includes passive acoustic monitoring following a modified version of NABat as well as WNS surveillance sampling which includes capturing bats to take swab samples to detect the presence of the fungus that causes WNS. This position is primarily focused on field data collection, although office projects will also be required. Regular overnight travel and “car” camping will occur (government vehicles and most camping equipment will be provided), often in backcountry locations with no amenities. Long drives on highways and unimproved dirt roads are often necessary to get to remote sites.

The Sustainability Fund Review Committee (SFRC) is a team of undergraduate students who assess 
Since opening in 2021, the Terp to Terp Campus ReUse Store has diverted over 72,000 pounds of items from the landfill. The store collects and distributes small appliances, kitchen items, room accessories, clothing, and school supplies donated throughout the year. Any UMD student can make an appointment to shop for FREE items.
The UMD Farmers Markets are back! Every Wednesday from 11am-3pm, stop by Tawes Plaza to purchase fresh produce, student-made crafts, and other local products. Check out the Office of Sustainability table at various markets for educational games and DIY activities.
From rain gardens and research to internships and field trips, the Sustainability Fund helps bring student, staff, and faculty ideas to life. With over $800K available, consider submitting a proposal by Oct. 15th (priority) or Jan. 15th. Mini-Grants are also available for requests of $2,000 or less.
As part of its Do Good project, the Lamp Lab is hiring an undergraduate student to help increase exposure to insect-based foods. The student will facilitate workshops, engage with the UMD community in dining halls, and provide information about the history, sustainability, and future of insect protein. Best consideration is Sept. 4th.
The Office of Sustainability is seeking offices, departments, and other staff teams to participate in the fall 2026
