About The Position
Conservation Education Interns at the Greenville Zoo are primarily responsible for successfully implementing the Zoo Camp curriculum. This includes assisting with developing class materials, leading classes of up to 20 students, and coordinating teen volunteer classroom assistants with the support of the full-time education staff. Interns also can gain experience working with various animals, including small mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and invertebrates. Due to the closeness of the zoo community, an internship at an AZA-accredited institution such as the Greenville Zoo can provide invaluable work experience and networking opportunities that will create a solid foundation for many zoo and animal-related professions. Previous interns have successfully moved on from our education internship program to attend veterinary schools as well as begin careers in the environmental sector, both formal and informal education arenas, and in zoos and aquariums across the country. Summer internships are usually from late May to early August.
