The application for the Penn Museum Summer Internship Program is live!
The Penn Museum offers 150 to 300-hour nine-week summer internship opportunities for undergraduates, recent graduates, and graduate students from any college or university. Internships are comprised of a project-based placement in a Museum department and the Museum Practice Program, which includes orientation, weekly lectures, collections tours, a field trip to a local museum (if the program is in-person), and final presentations. The Museum only hosts paid interns during the summer (see our website for all funding options). The Penn Museum Intern Stipend provides stipends of $2,250 for 150 hours up to $4,500 for 300 hours ($15/hr), to cover the costs of living expenses. The summer 2021 program will run from June 7 - August 6, 2021. The Museum Practice Program will be held on Wednesdays 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm. Applications are particularly encouraged from African American, Latinx, Native American, and other underrepresented minorities in departments such as collections, conservation, registration, and curation. Please see our website for more information about this and other funding opportunities: penn.museum/studentopportunities Application requirements include an essay, cover letter, resume or curriculum vitae, transcript(s) (unofficial preferred), and 2 letters of recommendation from a current or former college professor, academic advisor, or employer.
