Milwaukee Public Museum
GRADUATE MUSEUM INTERNSHIP
SUMMER 2010

The Milwaukee Public Museum is offering a summer internship for graduate Museum Studies students. This internship, sponsored by the Betty L. and M. Kenneth Starr Internship Fund, offers a stipend of $2000 for assistance in travel and living expenses.

Candidates must be enrolled in a masters or Ph. D. program in Museum Studies. (Students enrolled in an advanced program with an emphasis or certificate in Museum Studies or Museum Science do not qualify for this award.)

A variety of internship opportunities exist in areas such as Anthropology, Botany, Conservation, Education, Exhibition, Geology, History, Registration, and Zoology. All internships, however, depend on availability and some require previous experience and/or classes. The award recipient is also required to perform at least 150 hours of internship work.

Applications should consist of a statement of purpose, a resume, and two letters of recommendation. Selection of the award recipient will be based on availability of a compatible internship and the applicant’s present abilities and potential.

Application deadline is March 6, 2010; notification by March 19, 2010. AA/EOE
