How to move to Antartica

Just try as a worker. They need electricians, plumber etc. Did you ever see "Encounter at the end of the world"?

one of the best threads on this board had anons who had worked there, it's not on 4plebs anymore thoughr

if you dont want to be a worker stay on the course of going to school but you're going to have to get even further than undergrad. Masters AT LEAST. Geology is good but drop the environmental sciences.

it's not what you think and trust me you're not gonna find much research regarding forest restoration or watershed management down there. MAYBE biodiversity but still not a good bet.

stick with the geology but honestly go for physics and look at solid state stuff. just google around for publications regarding neutrinos and all that shit.

This is the company I applied with and interviewed with. Give them a run.

Just remember you wont be there for a winter your first time. You'll be there for the summer while they are trying restock everything. You will pretty much be working 7 days a week, 10+ hours a day, for 3 to 6 months depending on the position you get. Most bases you'll be working on have little to no animal life around them, and you'll most likely be indoors all day, every day. You'll probably only be able to go outside for short stints once or twice a week.

You cant really move to Antarctica...eventually they'll rotate you out and bring you back to the USA. I have the same goals as you OP but I am going to take the support staff route.

you don't get a job there in geology unless you have a phd. I have my bachelors in geology from University of Canterbury which works alongside the antarctic research program. Theres a very limited intake course which allows you to go to antarctica over a 6 week period (maybe more). But even then you need to be a top top masters student. Its easier to find a way down through a trade.

would disagree with dropping environmental sciences. I did geo and chemistry through undergrad and have now ended back up at uni doing water sciences/environmental management because its where the jobs (if any) are. OP needs to think beyond antarctica, that mindset is too restrictive in real life. Its a bizzare world for geologists, geographers get all the environmental jobs, civil engineers get all the geo jobs.

when i was flying to the states last year i met a guy who had just rotated off a 6 month contract as a fireman in Antarctica. dont even need a degree. you do need to be an experienced fireman though.

the bases are actually micro towns so many trade skills are as important as the scientists producing research, you just have to be widely competent and meet their selection criteria.

You can "get to" Antarctica as a tourist, there are several cruise lines that run there, and last I looked there was a tour by airplane from somewhere in NZ, though it's been a few years since I looked into that.

They make you get a pretty substantial blood test before you go to Antarctica.

Even if you have a mild condition like high blood pressure you can get black-listed.
