Educational Programs for university students

Laboratories

Master’s and doctoral theses of the Biology Department of the University of Crete are prepared in the museum’s laboratories, using the museum’s collections, equipment and infrastructure.

Internship

At the same time, the Natural History Museum of Crete accepts, under conditions, a limited number of students for internships through the University of Crete and the “Friends of the Natural History Museum of Crete” Association.

Internship

Teaching

The members of the museum also participate in teaching undergraduate and postgraduate students in the Departments of Biology, Geology and other Environmental Departments of the University of Crete and other Universities in Greece and abroad.
