The Everglades isn’t just a park or place to visit – it’s a giant classroom. It’s a learning experience. It’s a great place for a student to intern. With an Everglades internship, people can gain experience in biological sciences, interpretation, administration, and more.
Internships are available through the Everglades BioCorps Internship Program, the Greening Youth Foundation, and the Student Conservation Association.
