Shark Research and Conservation

The Shark Research & Conservation Program (SRC) at the University of Miami conducts conservation-relevant shark research while inspiring scientific literacy and environmental engagement in K-12 youth through hands-on field research experiences. Every year, SRC brings hundreds of people, mostly school-children, out on research vessels to survey, sample, tag and study sharks. We especially try to serve communities that have been historically, and often currently, excluded from STEM opportunities.

If you are an educator interested in SRC please email UMSharkResearch@Miami.edu.

The Shark Research and Conservation Program offers internships to University of Miami students interested in elasmobranch research and conservation. We accept undergraduate applications each fall and MPS student applications each spring. To learn more about applying for internship positions, check the SRC website.
