INTERN MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
We accept interns on a continual rolling basis. We will not take
more than 3 interns at a given time as we want to enhance the intern and
research experience through a one-on-one mentorship approach to ensure interns
gain an experience that provides a strong foundation in scientific research,
and conservation and management. We encourage interested individuals to contact
us promptly as slots are limited and fill up fast. As research projects will
change, we will be in contact with interns prior to arrival in regards to the
project work you should expect to conduct during your internship.
Our Internships:
Interns are expected to put in about 30 hours of work each week
during their stay, assisting CRC with all current research projects, which
include a variety of scientific fields (population biology, ecology, community
ecology, parasitology, eco-toxicology, phylogenetics, etc.). Interns should
expect to participate in community outreach, as well as working with one of our
several partners here in Belize. If interested, you can request to spend time
at some of our partners’ facilities as well (at no extra cost).
Long-term interns (staying with us for more than 1 month) with
specific research interests are encouraged to develop small attainable projects
to complete during their internship. We will work with interns to gather and
analyze data for potential publication following their internship. We also have
various projects that are non-crocodile related and welcome interns whose
research interests may include ecosystems or species that are not our primary
focus.
