In the Fall term, the Museum of Florida History is offering unpaid internships designed for students who already have decided their career path and are building their resume for future professional positions. Appropriate major subjects include education, history, art history, public administration, anthropology, museum studies, and others related to the support of museum activities. Interns keep pre-arranged office hours and assume professional-level responsibilities. They help with day-to-day operations and complete some portion of a major project being undertaken by Museum of Florida History or the Knott House Museum. Interns are supervised by experienced and responsible professional staff in cooperation with a university supervisor. Applicants must be enrolled in school and seeking credit hours for internships.
Project Opportunities may be available in the following areas:
- Education collections use and management in a historic house (graduate student only)
- Education program development
- Education program management/Florida History Day
Please refer interested students to Beatrice.cotellis@dos.myflorida.com. Information and forms for students are attached.
