Volunteers & Internships

UPDate: COVID-19 Information

For the health and safety of all guests, staff, volunteers and interns we have made the difficult decision to place our Volunteer and Intern programs on hold. You may still submit an application if you are iterested in volunteer or internship opportunities. Once the program re-opens, we will review all submitted applications and schedule interviews with selected applicants. 

Volunteers
 

As a volunteer at the Electric City Aquarium & Reptile Den, you will have the opportunity to work side by side with our experienced aquarists or zookeepers assisting in the care of various aquatic animals, reptiles, and amphibians while educating guests. Volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in many of our day to day activities, including: interacting with guests and getting them involved with learning about our animal collection, cleaning and maintaining our gallery and public areas, assisting with the daily care of our animals, and much more!

 
Internships
  
Internships at the Electric City Aquarium & Reptile Den provide hands-on experiences that add value to any college education. Interns obtain valuable job experience and establish professional contacts in an exciting and stimulating environment. College internship positions are available year-round for both credit and non-credit seeking interns. Interns will be required to complete a minimum of 120 hours and to complete an approved project in their department.
