@noaa The NOAA Corps: Service, Science, Adventure

2014 Edition: 21 minutes. Science-minded students and active duty service members who seek adventure and travel have opportunities to serve their country in exciting, flexible and diverse careers, commanding and operating scientific ships and aircraft as officers of the NOAA Commissioned Officer Corps. One of the seven uniformed services of the United States, the Corps is an integral part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, an agency of the U.S. Department of commerce.

This video takes you aboard scientific survey ships, hurricane research aircraft, and into a wide range of operating areas nationwide to introduce you to the origin, mission, role and benefits of the NOAA Commissioned Officer Corps.
