Animal Behavior Research Experience!
Summer Internship For Middle and High School Students
Join us for an unforgettable week-long immersion in the world of Animal Behavior at Pine Trails Ranch in West Davis! This internship will spark students’ curiosity about animal behavior and help them explore career options and prepare for college programs in related fields. Activities will include designing experiments, training animals using science-backed methods, creating environmental enrichment to reduce stress in captive animals, and recording observations of captive and wild animals. These activities will demonstrate concepts taught in short lectures and videos, which will focus on the science of animal behavior and the numerous ways it can be applied to benefit humans and other animals. Students will gain foundational knowledge of animal behavior and a deeper understanding of how science works and how they can apply it to whatever they’re passionate about. Students will receive a program-issued Junior Animal Behavior Scientist Certificate of Completion, signed by UC Davis Professor, Dr. Rebecca Calisi-Rodriguez.
