Veterinary Internship Program
The Gulf World Marine Park veterinary medical internship is
designed for veterinary students, preferably during their

college. This program offers exposure to a large number of
fish, reptiles, birds, and marine mammals including the only
collection of Rough-Toothed Dolphins in the United States.
Gulf World is also a Southeast Coordinator for the Marine
Mammal Stranding Network, so students will participate in
the emergency response team during stranding events.
First and second year students:
One first or second year veterinary student may be selected

their own transportation and housing arrangements. Students
must be U.S. citizens in U.S.-accredited schools.
