This summer, Bigelow Laboratory welcomed eight students for an internship exploring algae innovation as a potential career path.
The MARIA internship gives marine biology students from University of New England, Southern Maine Community College, and Roger Williams University the chance to learn about real-world applications of algae, develop hands-on lab skills, and experience applied ocean research.
Since its founding last year, the program has already grown significantly through expanded partnerships and funding, allowing students to spend 10 weeks at our campus and become fully integrated into the larger cohort of Bigelow Laboratory summer interns.
Go team algae! 💚
