Long overdue, but worth the wait… We are pleased to announce that we will be offering multiple panda internships for the 2015 breeding season. The first of which begins in February and goes into late April. We have solidified our research plans with the Bifeng Xia CCRCGP panda base near Ya’an, Sichuan, China, and will be posting the details in the next few weeks. We are still working out a few logistical components, but will begin accepting applications soon.
Be sure to click our intern tab on the homepage within the next few weeks. Good Luck.
do your interns generally speak chinese, or are they able to learn it/pick it up during their internship?
Hello,
Our past interns have not spoken Chinese, but they were able to pick up the basics in the time they were there. We encourage each intern to dive into the language by reading help books, practice with someone who speaks, and rosetta stone has some very good software that seems helpful.
Hope this helps. Feel free to email us with additional questions.
