Education Department Internship

The Education Department is pleased to provide an internship program for graduate and undergraduate students at the Colorado History Museum during each fall, spring, and summer semester. The internships are available on a volunteer basis and many students arrange to receive academic credit for their work at the museum.

Candidates selected to become interns at the museum work side by side with staff members in teaching, touring, and producing education materials, and researching the Society's collections in one of three areas: school and youth programs, collections management, and public programs. Interns are regarded as responsible members of the staff and meet regularly with the professional staff to discuss their work. Applicants should be enrolled in a degree program with a major in one of the following area: history, anthropology, education, or museum studies. Other majors may be considered.

Because the internship program is small, each intern's program is individually designed with the student and the sponsoring institution. One writing sample and two letters of recommendation should be submitted with a cover letter.

Interested students should contact:
