INTERNSHIPS

Internships, usually unpaid, are available in a variety of departments. They are temporary positions and are supervised by full-time professional staff.  Interns may interact with staff in other departments, volunteers, consultants, and the public.  CCHS is willing to work with students to arrange course credit for their work, should it be available.  Preferred applicants are graduate or upper-level undergraduates in history, library science, archives management, museum studies, education, anthropology or a related field with an interest in working with museum collections, special libraries, or archives
