Shoals Marine Laboratory

Marine Mammal Undergraduate Researcher

June - August 2019 • Kittery, ME

What I liked

The research I was able to do here was an amazing experience both in terms of building up my research skills, and also enjoying the work I was doing. The people here are amazing, and living on the island was a fantastic experience.

What I wish was different

My only wish is that there were more internship/ undergraduate researcher positions. This is a great opportunity for undergraduates, and the Isles of Shoals is a very unique and interesting study site. Expanding the program would benefit both undergraduates and the scientific community.

Advice

Take advantage of every opportunity you have. Be active socially, and academically. Sit in on some classes if you can, explore the island, attend talks, etc. This is a great place for networking and you will get out of it what you put into it.
