Description:
The Semester by the Bay program has a few internships still available for this fall semester and is accepting applications now for undergraduate students interested in studying marine biology (marine mammals, seabirds, fishes, tide pool invertebrates, etc.) in the beautiful seaside town of Homer, Alaska. Our courses offer students numerous unique hands-on, experiential learning opportunities in the lab and field, such as behavioral ecology of beluga whales, sea otters, and harbor seals, acoustics of harbor porpoises, marine mammal skeletal articulation/museum preparation, marine debris assessment, seining and identification of estuarine fishes, behavior of seabirds at island rookeries, scientific illustration, among others. In addition, most students participate in community-based internships and/or volunteer opportunities with governmental or non-governmental researchers while studying with us at the Kachemak Bay Campus of Kenai Peninsula College - University of Alaska Anchorage.  KPC offers in-state tuition and many internships include free or significantly reduced housing. Please see www.semesterbythebay.org and/or contact Dr. Deborah Boege-Tobin at dtobin@uaa.alaska.edu for more information.
