Becoming a volunteer in ANIC

Thank you for your interest, but currently we are not accepting new applications.

The Australian National Insect Collection Volunteer Scheme

Our Volunteer Scheme began in 1998. Since then, hundreds of people have spent tens of thousands of hours helping staff with a range of curation and research related activities at the Australian National Insect Collection (ANIC).

ANIC Volunteers are a diverse group of people from different backgrounds. Some volunteers have left the workforce and are spending some of their retirement volunteering at ANIC. For others volunteering at ANIC has helped them gain experience and find paid work. Some come to the ANIC with an interest and knowledge of entomology or biological sciences; others are looking for an opportunity to learn something completely new.
