Opportunities
The GVSU AEP and our colleagues from University of Texas at El Paso
The project relies heavily on student workers to do the research. This includes both undergraduate and graduate students. See the Members page for information on current and former students.
Each year a new crew is hired. The ideal student is someone with great determination and a strong interest to go to graduate school to do ecological research. Students of all levels (freshman to senior) are encouraged to apply. Prior experience is less important than a strong work ethic. The field season is long and demanding (see Field Experience) and it takes a special type of person to do well. Graduate student opportunities are also available.
If interested, talk to a Member of the Arctic Ecology Program for more details.
