Internship Opportunities

Internships are one of the best ways for individuals to gain experience in their field(s) of interest. The Cox Science Center and Aquarium's internships offer hands-on experience in a fun and professional setting. Interns work throughout the building on a wide variety of projects and tasks including everything from science education to behind-the-scenes projects.

Our internship program is designed to provide college students and recent graduates with the opportunity to gain a realistic, in-depth view of a career path.
