A unique opportunity for qualified high school students (grades 10, 11 & 12) to participate in the Institute's summer college internship program. Participants will gain valuable insight into the techniques of field study, participate in the collection of specimens and record and evaluate field data!

In addition, you will travel side by side with the WI college interns as they conduct research projects in such areas as beach biology, turtle research, and fish and bird population studies.

At week's end, each participant will present a report based on an individual study. Be prepared for tough work and lots of fun: rain or shine, hot or cold, bugs or no bugs!! Intern for a Week is an opportunity for gaining hands-on experience while getting to know college interns and the scientists with whom they work.

By expanding classroom knowledge, this program offers young students a basis on which to decide areas of study for a possible college major as well as career decisions.
