Spring Internship Announcement

The Whale Center of New England is a non-profit research organization,
comprised of approximately 10 people involved with the study of
behavior,
ecology, and natural history of the whales and dolphins found in the
waters off
Cape Ann, MA.  Primary concentration is on an individually identified
population of some several hundred humpback whales that spend portions
of the
spring, summer, and fall in these waters.

Since 1982, interns have been responsible for collecting, organizing,
transcribing, and analyzing data dealing with the behavior and
identification
of N. Atlantic cetaceans. We are currently looking to fill an opening
for the
spring semester of 2002 (Jan 20 – May 25). The internship will involve
extensive photo and computer work (training provided), plus field data
collection aboard commercial whale watching vessels and our research
boat
Silver II.

A common apartment is used, where interns live together and share
cooking and
cleaning duties.  Rooms are shared with one other person.  A living
arrangement
such as this is conducive to open discussion and interaction between
peers and
home life is often a continuation of the day in the field.  Therefore,
it is
essential that candidates can combine these two areas. A fee of $1000
for the
period will be charged and in return interns will receive housing and a
weekly
food stipend.

In the past, applicants for these positions have been primarily
undergraduate
college students.  Although we do not limit these positions to that
group, the
internship is tailored to their needs, and they are given priority.
College
credit may be arranged by the student through their department or as an
independent research program at their college or university.  The Whale
Center
of New England encourages this, and will take whatever steps are
required to
facilitate such efforts.

An applicant for an internship should have the following:

* A background in biology
* Some knowledge of research methods and design
* An ability to work, live and communicate well with others
* Enthusiasm and dedication to work long days in the field or lab
(sometimes 12
hours or more)

In order to formally apply for an internship, please send us a
curriculum vitae
or resume, a cover letter detailing your reason for applying, one letter
of
reference, and a transcript. Interviews will be arranged once we’ve
received
the completed application. Internships are open to college students that
have
completed their freshman year. Positions will be filled on a first come,
first
serve basis from a pool of qualified applicants.  Application materials
should
be sent to:
