Every summer the Alaska Fisheries Science Center provides exciting internship opportunities for students.

Our internship projects may take you to Alaska onboard a survey vessel or to San Miguel Island, California, to study California sea lion life history. Our projects may also place you in our laboratories to learn how we use genetic techniques to study fish populations, or how to identify and differentiate larval fish. This year we even have internships for students interested in library and information sciences.


At this time the application deadline for the 2009 internships has passed and applications are currently not accepted.  A record number of at least 80 applications were received. The 2010 project decriptions are expected to be posted sometime between December 2009 and January 2010. The application process for 2010 will begin after that time. Please check back then.
