The Marine Mammal
Behavior and Cognition Lab at the University of Southern Mississippi offers
an internship to college juniors, seniors and recent graduates. There are three
available internship periods each year: Spring, Summer, and Fall.
Interns work on research projects being conducted by faculty
members and graduate students, and will gain experience in both behavioral and
acoustic data collection and analysis. Specific experiences depend on the
research projects that are ongoing at the time of the internship.

academic institution of their choice.
