Ibsar is always looking for enthusiastic individuals who share the same passion of making the necessary steps in countering the global ecological threats we face today.

Internship Programs with IBSAR:

The job market is a competitive playing field with employers seeking individuals with remarkable skills and talents. Attaining outstanding grades during your studies will only get you so far when it comes to landing a desirable job. With on-the-job experience being a principle factor that employers desire when scoping out new recruits, recent graduates who lack experience have little to offer them.

From this perspective, career-seeking graduates, researchers, and even current students, can greatly benefit from interning within their corresponding fields. Internships are an excellent way for acquiring valuable work experience while improving networking and communications skills. They are an outstanding means of preparing young graduates into the job market while building up on social and human capital.

IBSAR – a leading nature conservation center for sustainable futures –  is proudly offering a series of internship programs for students, researchers, and recent graduates from all disciplines. Nature conservation encompasses all disciplines in numerous ways – from medicine to engineering, architecture to law – nature is the foundation that all disciplines are built upon. Nature should always be taken into consideration and not for granted. 

 

Aside from our constant search for interns interested in working in a number of conservation-based activities, we are also currently looking for students or recent graduates who are experienced in:

• Web design, management and maintenance

• Children’s storybook writing and/or illustration

• Marketing and advertising

• fundraising and proposal writing

• Computer graphics (animation) and graphic design

• Popular science writing and research

• Landscape design and urban planning

• Art – painting, sculpture, photography, etc.

Our internship programs are flexible to fit around the busy schedules of students and researchers, and there are numerous areas of interest to choose from. We aim to provide a platform for interns to gain work experience and ;learn new skills that they can use in their own research and career development.
