2009 USGA Green Section Interns

The USGA Green Section Internship Program provides selected students the opportunity to travel with Green Section staff members during Turf Advisory Service (TAS) visits for one week between May and August 2009. USGA staff agronomists conduct on-site TAS visits to bring a wealth of research results and practical information on construction and maintenance directly to golf course superintendents and course officials. The goal of the internship program is to provide students with a broad view of the golf course industry and the opportunity to learn about golf course maintenance through the perspective of the Green Section agronomists.
