FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What volunteer opportunities do you have?
The NMLC Visitor Center has an active program of volunteers during the summer months. Volunteers help in three areas: greeting visitors and serving as docents, assisting with outreach, and running educational programs.

Do you have any Internships?
The NMLC is currently discussing how to develop a clinical experience for veterinary students with the faculty of the Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine. When there are more animals in rehabilitation at the NMLC, internships or other clinical experiences will become available.
After building renovation, when the NMLC is fully functioning as a marine animal rehabilitation hospital and science/education center, there will be internships for veterinary students interested in marine mammal medicine and college students looking for practical experience with systems engineering and marine animal care. However, it will be at least the end of 2004 before we can define the internships and accept applications.
