Dear History Majors- As Director of Internships for the History Department, I write this weekend with another wonderful opportunity for history internships. The New York Historical Society has extended its deadline for summer intern applications. The New-York Historical Society is offering full-time, eight week internships in both our museum and library divisions. From modeling creative exhibition layouts to researching with our curators and educators, college and graduate interns experience unparalleled career development and cultivate fruitful professional relationships. Applicants who are selected to participate in this rewarding yet demanding experience will either be paid a stipend of $3000 or receive academic credit, depending on the intern's school requirements. The spring summer internship program will run June through August (unless otherwise specified), and interns may work up to 280 hours throughout the duration of the program. Upcoming Dates to Know: Internship applications open: Tuesday, February 12th Internship applications close: Deadline extended! Monday, March 25th Internship dates: June-August 2019 If you would like to see more about the numerous internship programs the historical society is recruiting for, please visit:? https://www.nyhistory.org/careers/college-and-graduate-internships As a reminder, the History Department offers credit for history-related internships: The History department offers HIST387, "Internship in History." This course enables history majors to earn a maximum of three credit hours for a faculty-supervised internship directly related to history or the collection and preservation of historical materials. The course combines practical work with supervised, independent academic study.
