Field work Office work
€600 monthly
ICM-CSIC Barcelona, Spain
At iMARES (ICM‑CSIC), we offer a research internship for bachelor’s or master’s students interested in urban ecology, wildlife health and environmental contamination. The project investigates how urban gulls can serve as sentinel species for detecting pollutants and pathogens in human‑dominated environments. The study will examine the origin and distribution of contaminants, compare exposure among different gull species, and assess related public health risks. Combining GPS‑based movement ecology with laboratory analyses, the student will help generate contamination‑risk maps and contribute to a multidisciplinary framework for monitoring pollution in urban landscapes. The internship provides training in ecological data analysis, GIS, wildlife tracking, laboratory workflows and applied environmental health assessment within a collaborative research team. Requirements: University students in the final year of a bachelor’s degree or enrolled in an official...

ICM-CSIC Barcelona, Spain
At iMARES (ICM‑CSIC), we offer a research internship for bachelor’s or master’s students interested in trophic ecology, conservation science and ecological data analysis. The project examines whether no‑take Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) lead to measurable changes in the diet, trophic role and predator–prey interactions of selected fish species. The study will compile and clean dietary and community datasets (stomach contents, stable isotopes, eDNA and visual surveys), and quantify differences in diet composition, niche breadth, trophic overlap and, when possible, trophic position inside versus outside MPAs. The student will follow a structured workflow that includes designing the comparative framework, computing trophic metrics, running statistical analyses, and generating reproducible outputs for management evaluation. The internship provides training in R‑based ecological analysis, trophic metrics, reproducible workflows, database management, and complementary field...

ICM-CSIC Barcelona, Spain
At iMARES (ICM‑CSIC), we offer a research internship for bachelor’s or master’s students interested in marine spatial planning, biodiversity conservation, and geospatial ecological analysis. The project will develop a standardized workflow to identify Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas (EBSAs) in two major climate‑change hotspots: the Western Mediterranean Sea and the Eastern & Central Tropical Pacific. Using ecological and oceanographic datasets, the study will generate spatial products that highlight areas of high ecological value, regions of vulnerability or productivity, and priority zones for conservation planning. The student will analyse geospatial data, apply EBSA criteria, and explore multiple spatial prioritization scenarios to produce comparable outputs across ocean basins. The internship provides hands‑on training in R programming, ecological data analysis and geospatial modelling, while working closely with researchers in an...

At iMARES (ICM‑CSIC), we offer a research internship for bachelor’s or master’s students interested in urban ecology, wildlife behaviour and eco‑physiology. The project investigates the ecological drivers behind the success of the yellow‑legged gull in cities and the consequences of its increasing reliance on human‑dominated environments. The study will integrate fieldwork (capture, GPS tagging, sample collection and behavioural observations), laboratory analyses (physiology, zoonotic pathogens and urban contaminants) and statistical modelling. The student will examine habitat selection, interactions with human activities, physiological condition, pathogen prevalence, contaminant loads and diet composition to understand how this “winner species” adapts to urban ecosystems. The internship offers training in field techniques, lab workflows, ecological data analysis and interdisciplinary approaches to wildlife research in human‑impacted environments. Requirements:...

International Women’s Day and International Day of Women and Girls in Science   often triggers a familiar conversation: how do we get more women into blue economy careers? In 2026, the sharper question is different: how do we make sure they can stay? Because the blue economy’s retention problem isn’t just a pipeline issue. It’s a job-design issue . When work is structured around long rotations, irregular shifts, remote...
From June 2026, pay transparency will become a legal obligation across the European Union. With the application of the EU Pay Transparency Directive , employers will face new requirements on how salaries are defined, communicated and reported, while workers and job candidates will gain stronger rights to understand and challenge pay differences. For the blue economy, where teams are often international and recruitment highly competitive,...
Blue biotechnology is moving from a “promising niche” to an enabling pillar of the blue economy—because it converts aquatic biodiversity and biomass into high-value products and services while supporting Europe’s climate, resilience, and competitiveness objectives. At its core, blue biotechnology applies science and technology to living aquatic organisms —including microalgae, bacteria, fungi, algae and marine invertebrates—to...
