Intelligentsia International, Inc.>>> Field Trips

Field Trips

Every program participant takes part in field trips. Theirs frequency greatly depends on a specific program plan, but expect anything between 1 and 3 days per week to spend in the field. Specific instructions are here.

We strongly believe that putting your hands on also field related tasks (and not just spend all the time in office environment like in traditional internships) widens the program objectives, your experiences and achievements.

Here are few examples of field activities you might join:

collect surface/subsurface water, soil and grass samples
measure water flow and physical parameters in flumes, culverts and wells
maintain field telemetry stations and its software/hardware
collect dataloggers data with laptops and PDAs
build, maintain, test and improve automated sampling equipment
collect GPS data for further analysis

More detailed description of available assignments is in the list of projects.

Field work related tasks are only one part of the whole program - you will also take part in office assignments, laboratory tasks and educational tours.
