STARTING DATE: Year round
APPLICATION DEADLINES: Spring: February 1 Summer: April 15 Winter: October 1

monitoring techniques, diving and boating, and perhaps most valuable,
personal interaction with some of the world's leading marine scientists.

research demands and funding availability.
*Internships are non-salaried, however, room and board (shared
accommodation) and transportation between LSI and Exuma International
Airport (Georgetown, Bahamas) will be provided.
