What recent interns said about their experience
During my internship I enjoyed the balance between exploring Athens and engaging in meaningful, hands-on work. Visiting iconic cultural sites was incredible, but the most fulfilling aspect was the experience I gained at the centre. I participated in therapy sessions, shared ideas, and built connections with both patients and staff. Despite the language barrier, I found ways to communicate and connect, which made the experience even more rewarding. This internship has made a significant contribution to my personal and professional development. Personally, it strengthened my patience, adaptability, and cultural awareness. Professionally, I gained valuable field experience in mental health care, particularly in how art and creative expression can be integrated into therapy for elderly patients. This experience has deepened my interest in pursuing a career that combines psychology with art-based interventions while improving my ability to work in diverse and cross-cultural settings. Overall, the internship has provided me with confidence, insight, and motivation to continue developing in my field.
My favorite part of the internship was going on boat trips and doing real marine mammal research, but I also loved meeting interns from all over the world and learning from their different backgrounds. The experience gave me more confidence in myself and confirmed that I want to keep working in environmental conservation.
This internship was an incredible experience that opened my eyes to the world of healthcare in ways I never expected. It gave me a deeper understanding of the field and truly confirmed that a career in healthcare is the right path for me. I was able to see firsthand how healthcare professionals make a difference in people’s lives, and that experience was both inspiring and motivating. Beyond the professional growth, I also gained a new sense of independence and confidence in myself. I had the opportunity to meet and connect with so many amazing people from different backgrounds, and the friendships I made were just as impactful as the skills I learned. This internship not only helped shape my career goals, but also helped me grow as a person. It was truly an amazing experience.
I just finished 2 months and I could not be more proud to have been apart of an institute. I loved being a part of an institute that values conservation and sustainability as greatly. From the desk work to the boat surveys that I was privileged enough to participate on, everything felt immensely rewarding and exciting. Everyone is super supportive and encouraging and foster such an amazing environment to learn and grow as a scientists and advocates. Thanks to this internship, I have developed countless new skills and have met so many incredible people. I would absolutely recommend this internship to anyone who wants to be involved in conservation and environmental research.
