Why study in Antarctica, do an internship, do volunteer work or look for a job in Antarctica?

Why study, do an internship, volunteer or work temporarily in Antarctica?

• Because it is a unique and extreme destination, if you like undiscovered, pure, rugged, cold, and adventurous places.
• Because you can also do volunteer work here, for example, providing support for expeditions.
• Because you can do good scientific research, for example, astronomical research, climate research, or ecosystem research. 
• Because it looks very good on your resume; it clearly shows that you can function in difficult environments.

What should you pay attention to?

• You will be working in isolation and in extreme cold.
• There are logistical challenges.
• Everything that is available in Antarctica has to be imported.
• If you want to work there, there is a strict selection process, including medical screening, because medical care is focused solely on emergency assistance.
