Internships generally run for three-month periods, are full-time, and are based out of Winthrop, Washington, in the heart of the spectacular North Cascade Mountains. The program is available year-round and is open to undergraduate students, graduate students, or other interested persons.

Be sure to check out the articles from our 2003 Internship Newsletter and  Winter 2001 Newsletter, "Expanding Horizons: the Intern Experience" and "The Alien Weeds Project." These articles were written by interns about their experiences with Pacific Biodiversity Institute.
