Interns work with DHP’s education personnel in our many different summer programs including summer camps for K-12 students, our residential class in marine science for high school students, teacher workshops and public outreach events. Interns assist in all aspects of logistics, preparation, and teaching.  This is a great opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the field of environmental education and learn about the Gulf of Mexico ecosystems.

The internship includes a $4,000 stipend, room, and board.  A background check and drug testing are requirements for employment.
