Internship Opportunities

Internships offer valuable opportunities for history majors to explore career options, acquire practical experience, and build relationships with professionals and organizations in their areas of interest.

Internship Directory

Massachusetts and New England are home to an array of historical museums and organizations that offer internships during the school year and over the summer. ɬ﷬ also awards five internship grants to juniors who plan to do unpaid summer internships in a not-for-profit field dealing with social and human services.

The following directory provides descriptions of some local and national opportunities, along with contact information and web links. But there are many more that are open to taking on interns. If a particular museum or historic site is not listed here, contact the organization's director or education department and ask if they would be interested in sponsoring an internship.
