INTERNSHIPS & RESEARCH

HOW TO APPLY

Cochrane Ecological Institute has recently (November 28, 2025) had a change in policy and is only accepting students and interns from Canada and they must have their own transportation.

Whether you're studying to complete your undergraduate degree or searching for a place to conduct Ph.D. level research, you'll have a place to expand your education with us. Our wildlife center staff offer guidance and support for numerous research programs covering ecology, biology, environmental science, natural resource management and geography, amongst other genres of study. All of our participants are provided housing on-site at a small fee ($400 / month) to cover utilities.

Our selection process is rigorous and you must contact us by email to begin the process. Please fill out and submit the following form with:

1. Your name and age

2. Education level, area of study, and research interests

3. Your length of stay (depending on the scope of your research project) and expectations for your stay at CEI

Once you have filled out this form, we will get back to you as soon as possible with a detailed outline of our expectations for interns and students. Please note that none of our internships are paid positions.
