Since our opening in 2006, we’ve employed advanced students in biodiversity studies to help in the maintenance and operation of the museum as a teaching resource. As a paid fellow, students learn skills in collection curation, database management, program assistance, and web presence maintenance. These ten hour a week positions during the academic year are competitive and typically last two-years. Below is a list of all our past student employees as well as our current fellow(s).
