Internships

internship

One of the ways students can get involved with the botanic garden is through internships. We offer a number of opportunities.

  • Summer internships offer students an 8-week, immersive experience in a variety of different public garden fields including greenhouse, outdoor garden, seed cleaning and arboriculture work.
  • Our conservation internship is a year long experience that puts students at the front line of critical conservation work.
  • The international internship at Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew provides students the opportunity to conduct research abroad with leaders in the fields of molecular ecology and conservation genetics.
