Extended Project (2 months internship)

​

2 months research project, scheduled May-June.

 

The extended project, on a bioacoustics topic, will be completed during a 2-month placement in a research laboratory (Scientific research lab, research agency or industrial partner) in May and June.

 

Students can stay at the CIAN (Toulon) for this 2-month internship if they wish, or choose any other bioacoustics laboratory or institution.

​

Students will be involved in the design, implementation of a scientific project and prepare the publication of its results (regardless of outcome/significance).

 

Assessment

​

This module will be assessed by a dissertation that will have to be written and formatted as a Biology Letters article, as well as a 10 minutes presentation. The submission deadline is June 30th.

​​

Learning outcomes

 

By the end of the module, a successful student should be able to:

1. Demonstrate the ability to contribute to the design and to conduct a substantial experimental study in the field of Bioacoustics.

2. Demonstrate the ability to analyse the data from a substantial experimental study in the field of Bioacoustics. 

3. Demonstrate the ability to report and illustrate the outcome of a substantial experimental study in scientific format. 

​

​

If you don't want to stay at CIAN for your 2-month internship, you will have to find another lab. A good place to start is the (non exhaustive, but very useful) list of institutions that conduct research in bioacoustics compiled by the International Bioacoustics Society (IBAC).
