Education Mission

Education Division

As an institution dedicated to advancing the science of the sea, Mote recognizes the importance of advancing the understanding of that science to the general public.

Mote's Education Division is divided into two centers:

  • Center for School and Public Programs
  • Center for Volunteer and Intern Resources

Center for School and Public Programs 

On-site learning experiences and summer camps provide an in-depth visit for teachers, students and visitors. Teams of scientist-educators develop and host a wide variety of hands-on adventures. Special events and classes are offered for school, family and adult learning groups.  Connect your classroom to sharks, manatees, sea turtles and more! Mote’s SeaTrek program uses interactive videoconferencing to engage students, one class at a time in exciting marine science topics. SeaTrek’s educators develop, test and deliver highly engaging and interactive live programs, featuring real-world science at Mote Marine Laboratory. 

Center for Volunteer and Intern Resources

Join the action at Mote Marine Lab & Aquarium! We seek qualified volunteers and interns to assist with a wide variety of research, animal support and education activities.
