Student Volunteers program Are you interested in doing some hands-on research yourself? Would you like to help trap devils, go diving for sea urchins, count seabirds, or measure growing lizards? This program links you up with researchers who need you to help with their research, in the field or the laboratory. This program is open ONLY to students enrolled in first, second or third year Zoology units, but students who have just completed a degree in Zoology may volunteer over the summer following their completion. For OH&S reasons, you will need to be formally inducted as a university volunteer before beginning any research. More about field work and safety protocols .
