Internships

The Marine Biological Laboratory is seeking applicants for a 10-week position in the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program sponsored by the National Science Foundation. The successful applicant will participate in studies of carbon cycle processes in ocean ecosystems, particularly deep particle flux materials collected in the Oceanic Flux Program (OFP) deep ocean sediment traps in the Sargasso Sea.

Opportunities available for undergraduate scholars from the University of Chicago to partake in a twelve-week summer research experience hosted at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Massachusetts. Students work collaboratively with scientists to develop research projects that integrate the unique resources available at the MBL.

The University of Chicago Biological Sciences Collegiate Division Research Fellowship: “Working with Non-Traditional Model Organisms in the Biological Sciences”

Open to Dartmouth College Undergraduates Only

The E.E. Just Internship at the Marine Biological Laboratory provides Dartmouth College students with a unique opportunity to work alongside leading scientists at the very institution where E.E. Just made many of his important scientific discoveries.

The Partnership Education Program (PEP) is hosted by the six Woods Hole Science Institutions in collaboration with the University of Maryland, Eastern Shore. The program combines course work with directed independent research in earth and ocean science. The summer interns will spend 4 weeks in a summer course that surveys global climate change from the perspective the four oceanographic sub-disciplines and will also incorporate marine policy and management. 

Individual investigators at the MBL have various funded opportunities each year for undergraduates to do field- and laboratory-based research as part of that investigator’s research program.
