New York State Museum Internship offers hands-on learning opportunities for college students. Summer internships are available in research and collections, education, public programs and administration offices.
Summer internships are unpaid and generally last 6-12 weeks, but can be shorter or longer, depending on the school requirements and the organizational needs. Both part-time and full-time internships are available. Each intern is guided throughout their internship by an assigned supervisor.
Interns gain much experience and knowledge from museum internships. Whether it is preparing informational materials for visitors, creating new exhibition spaces, or planning for the proper storage, conservation, and exhibition of items in the Museum's collection, students will work on important projects that will develop specialized skills.
