Uno de los objetivos del BDRI es formar a futuros científicos en la investigación sobre mamíferos marinos ofreciendo una gran variedad de programas y oportunidades a estudiantes en todas las etapas de su formación académica. Además de las actividades de investigación científica, llevamos a cabo rigurosos programas de formación que ofrecen la posibilidad de incrementar la experiencia profesional: estancias de formación (Internships), voluntariado (estancias breves de formación, volunteering), cursos de formación y pasantías y prácticas universitarias dirigidas a estudiantes de grado de licenciatura y máster.
Estos programas permiten a estudiantes y personas interesadas en trabajar codo con codo con destacados científicos marinos en el desarrollo de proyectos de investigación científica sobre megafauna marina (delfines, ballenas, marsopas, nútrias y aves marinas) en uno de los ecosistemas más productivos del mundo (Galicia, Noroeste de España). Nuestros programas de formación se centran en preparar a estudiantes para una carrera profesional en investigación sobre mamíferos y aves marinas y en la conservación del ambiente marino. Así que, si quieres formar parte de esta experiencia única y eres una persona interesada en viajar al extranjero obteniendo experiencia práctica en investigación científica, en trabajo de campo a bordo de una embarcación y recibiendo formación intensiva a la vez que disfrutas y conoces a gente de todo el mundo, plantéate participar en uno de nuestros programas.
