Field-Based Internship Programs – Aquatic & Terrestrial Ecology
About the Internship
Our field-based internships provide immersive, hands-on learning in natural ecosystems. Students explore aquatic and terrestrial habitats, learn species identification, conduct ecological surveys, and complete field projects aligned with their academic interests.
2 Weeks (60 Hours) or 4 Weeks (120 Hours)
Field-based, minimal classroom instruction
