[MARMAM] Research Internship

[Victoria Howard]

*The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies is now accepting applications for
the Fall 2014 Internship- deadline June 1, 2014*
The IMMS Research Internship Program is designed as a way for students
interested in a career in marine science to gain valuable research
experience in a real-world setting. Interns will participate with multiple
projects involving bottlenose dolphins, sea turtles and diamondback
terrapins. As an intern, you will be trained in all aspects of dolphin
photo-id research, sea turtle satellite tracking, and other current
research projects at IMMS. Interns will also participate in other
operations at IMMS including stranding response, education, and animal
care. Our goal is to give Interns a well-rounded experience in a variety of
areas while providing expert training and experience in marine science
research.
Interns must:

   - Commit to a minimum of at least 12 weeks. The internship can be
   extended depending on work performance.
   - Be available to work Mon-Fri and must be available for all boat trips.
   Some field days may fall on the weekends.
   - Have strong sense of responsibility, work ethic, attention to detail,
   and ability to admit mistakes.
   - Produce high quality research efforts and exhibit strong interpersonal
   skills.

*Principle Duties include*: data entry, searching and cataloging journal
articles, learning all research protocols, cropping and sorting photo-id
fin images, learning to use photo-id programs such as Darwin (fin matching
software), and FinBase (Microsoft Access), boat based field research (21’
and 31’ boats), and learn how to use ArcGIS
Applicants must be 18 or older and must have a genuine interest in marine
research. Applicants should be actively pursuing a college degree or be a
recent graduate in oceanography, marine science/biology, biology, or a
related field. Previous research experience in any capacity is a plus.
Applicants must be able and willing to fulfill all duties outlined for this
Internship Program. This is an unpaid position and Interns are responsible
for their own housing and transportation. Once accepted, IMMS staff will be
able to assist Interns in suggesting suitable housing options and locations
