Hello David - AVO does not have a formal internship program. We highly recommend HVO's volunteer program: http://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/volunteer/ and the International Volcanology Field School: https://www.uaf.edu/geology/academics/international-volcanology/ Best wishes on your studies, Cheryl Cameron -------- David Jowett wrote: Hello there, I'm a student at Coventry university in the UK who's course has a placement year. I'm making contact with you as I was wondering if there are any internships available for people like myself because I'd be very interested to learn what it's like in a real volcanological observatory. All the best to you, David Jowett. -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050
