At Hertfordshire Zoo we take on a limited number of work experience students each week, throughout the year.
Our work experience placements are for people pursuing a career in a zoo or working with wildlife. We aim to give insight into what caring for animals in a modern zoo is like.

Please note demand for our placements is high and spaces fill quickly.
Hertfordshire Zoo is dedicated to encouraging research that contributes to the body of scientific knowledge about zoos and their inhabitants. We welcome many external researchers, including students, who wish to conduct research projects at Hertfordshire Zoo. All researchers must fill out the appropriate application documents and have their proposal accepted before any data collection can take place.
