Education Intern

The Endangered Wolf Center (EWC) has multiple internships available in the Education Department. Located in Eureka, Missouri, just 30 minutes from the St. Louis Arch, the EWC is a destination for top talent in the zoological industry and conservation field.

The EWC’s Internship program provides practical experience working directly with staff and guests while serving as a part of our education team. Intern responsibilities include leading educational programming, helping to design and implement curriculum, and developing/executing their own educational project.

Interns will learn to effectively educate and engage with audiences of all ages, practicing skills like customer service, communication, and collaboration. The duration of an internship depends on the need of the intern or facility and can be discussed. They are generally for three months and the hours can be flexible. Internships are unpaid but can be arranged for college credit. 

Because there are limited intern positions available throughout the year, our internship program is highly competitive. We recommend turning your application in as soon as possible for consideration.
