Internship Programme

For some years now students from several disciplines have enjoyed interning with Anthra. We have hosted students of veterinary science, animal science, agriculture, wildlife biology, anthropology, industrial design, business management and social sciences.

Internees get the opportunity to work on problems or issues they are interested in which fit within the scope and mandate of Anthra’s activities.

Facilities offered include a small but select library, a multidisciplinary team of mentors and access to field situations.

Interns are encouraged to select a topic on which they would like to focus. Current projects and programmes are indicated under Projects and Programmes. If you have a new idea you would like to explore may also indicate the same in your application. If it fits in with our work we will definitely consider it.
