Discovery Hall Programs (DHP) has two paid summer internship positions available for undergraduates (junior, senior) or recent graduates interested in marine environmental education. We are particularly interested in applications from individuals currently considering a career in environmental education. Located ~45 minutes south of Mobile, Alabama, the Dauphin Island Sea Lab (DISL) is the marine research and education facility for the state of Alabama. DISL’s Discovery Hall Programs offer a variety of summer camps, a residential marine science class, teacher workshops and outreach events, providing interns direct experience teaching, organizing, prepping and learning to lead environmental education and marine science education programs while learning about Gulf habitats. Successful candidates should be interested in marine science or environmental education and have completed a minimum of one year of biology classes. Interns live in the Sea Lab dorms and are expected to work some nights and weekends. Interns should enjoy working with people, including children, be comfortable in the water, have a valid US driver’s license, and be capable of handling some strenuous physical activity, as well as Alabama’s summer heat and humidity. The internship includes a $4,000 stipend, plus a $500 travel allowance provided upon completion of the internship, as well as full room and board in DISL dorms. The application period for Summer 2027 internships opens December 1, 2026, and will close February 15, 2027. Offers can be expected mid-March.
