FALL 2026 INTERNSHIPS

Save The Bay is a non-profit organization whose mission is to protect and improve Narragansett Bay. Save The Bay's internship program offers in-depth opportunities to become part of the Save The Bay Team.

THE BASICS

• Time Commitment: Interns commit to a semester or more of work. Specific requirements vary by internship, see individual descriptions.
• Transportation: Interns must have reliable transportation to their internship location; please note that the Providence location is about a 1 mile walk from the nearest RIPTA bus stop. Some internships require a personal vehicle (car). See individual descriptions for specifics, and check out this student RIPTA resource.
• Who can apply: While internships are geared toward college students, we accept applications from masters level students and above, recent graduates, and anyone else who is able to commit to the internship.
• Mature high school students ages 16+ may apply to the Aquarium programs (aquarist, educator). All other programs are 18+.
• We do not accept court-ordered community service volunteers for internships.
• Save the Bay internships are unpaid. We are happy to work with schools that offer credit, funding, or work study for internships.
• Deadline: Most fall internships have an initial deadline of August 1, though may close early if an applicant is found. Final decisions will be made by August 18, 2026.
