There are multiple internships available through Ocean Campus to volunteer, take courses, or have an internship in Africa in a wide array of disciplines. One that is specifically considered a "once in a lifetime" opportunity is the Oceans Research Internship. All levels of undergraduate students have the opportunity of working in the Oceans Research Unit in Mossel Bay, South Africa. Students gain practical, hands-on training in conducting research in South Africa's marine mega-fauna, which includes great white shark. Interns join scientists daily on their research expeditions to conduct groundbreaking research and experiments involving Mossel Bay's sharks and marine mammals.
Being a part of this internship, students will gain valuable insight and training in the latest research techniques and seamanship to equip them with the skills necessary to be a successful marine biologist.
