A Biology student during internship at the Australian zoo. |
Students may choose to do a local, regional, national or international internship. Our students have interned in Cortland at the two offices of the US Fish and Wildlife Service and the regional offices of the NY Department of Environmental Conservation. Students have also interned overseas in areas including Africa, Belize, and Australia. While at SUNY Cortland, students have many opportunities for directed and independent research, from molecular analyses of genetic diversity to field studies of streams, grasslands, tropical fungi, soil invertebrates, insects, reptiles, amphibians, birds, mammals and plants. The College’s field facilities at Hoxie Gorge and in the Adirondacks at Raquette Lake are heavily utilized for research and courses.
