Public History Internship

Catalog description

The internship will provide an extended practical experience in the field of public history. Internships are tailored to fit the needs of the individual student and the needs of the off-campus agency involved. As part of their program, all public history students must undertake an internship either doing public history in the private sector or with a public agency. The internship is available during any semester and its timing is related to an individual student's progress in the program. This is a variable credit course. Students in the MA Public History program take a 1-hour internship (50 hours minimum). Students in the PhD program, the MA Program or the dual MAPH/MILS Program take a 3-hour internship (150 hours).
