Hello Aurelie - I am sad to write that AVO does not offer any formal internship or volunteer program. You might consider HVO's volunteer program, or the International Volcanology Field School: http://www.uaf.edu/geology/academics/international-volcanology/ Best wishes on your studies, Cheryl Cameron -------- Aurelie Joy PASCUAL wrote: Dear Mrs/Mr, I am currently studying in a Master's program at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland) in Environmental Science. My specialization is "Analysis, monitoring and representation of natural hazards" and I am especially passionate about volcanic risk. I would really like to find an internship opportunity for next summer (mid-july to mid-september) in order to practice what I study and be in contact with professionals who work in this field. Also I am very motivated for practical work and I like working in team as much as independently so I think I can easily adapt to any situation that would be offered. I have already been on a few volcanoes (erupting or not) and it is undoubtedly my passion, therefore I am really trying to spend as much time as possible for this because every experience is unique and interesting. As I cannot join my CV to this message, I stay available for any other request you may have. If needed I can provide you my CV by email and some recommandations from professors of the university. Waiting for your answer, Best regards Aurélie Joy PASCUAL -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050
