Hours during school are flexible, and most tasks are located on or near campus. Hours during school sessions are limited to 20 hrs/week, while the summer hours are 30 hrs/week. During the summer, work will be at the field trial locations or at the lab located on campus, primarily in Cache Valley, but occasionally outside of the valley. This job will primarily be working for USU at the Forage and Range Research Lab on campus. The pay will be $17.19/hr. There are two components to this job: (1) a building maintenance, tools, and project portion, and (2) a field and research portion working with a specific technician. You would assist in various maintenance tasks and/or other field work. When not doing maintenance work you will be helping others, as a floating worker, to set up plant related experiments by filling containers with soil, transplanting seedlings into the containers, and transferring the plants to the field when the weather warms up. We need someone to work around 10-20 hours during the spring semester. Summer employment entails working with a technician in performing weed management, data collection, seed harvests, seed cleaning, machine maintenance. Summer hours will be capped at 30 hours per week, and the schedule will be worked out with the project you are working with. Responsibilities Part of the work assignments would include building maintenance tasks, painting, greenhouse repair, working with tools and projects, hopefully autonomously after demonstration/training. Work may include field work (especially during the summer), weeding, harvesting, spraying, collecting data and irrigation. Other tasks may include greenhouse work, data entry, seed collection, threshing and cleaning seed, weighing samples, grinding and scanning samples. Positions begin now, or at the end of the semester, going through the summer. Qualifications You do not need experience. We will train you on the job. We are looking for someone that is detail oriented and organized to keep experiments and data accurate and concise. We need someone that is not afraid to ask questions when methods are unclear and when they notice things that seem off in the experiments.
