The Princeton University Art Museum offers paid full-time and part-time summer internships for undergraduate and graduate students. Based on their academic training, experience, and departmental need, interns have the opportunity to work interdepartmentally or in one of the following departments: curatorial, education, information technology, marketing, the office of the registrar, publications, or retail operations. Priority for all departments is given to Princeton University students; graduate students are given preference for curatorial positions.

In addition to their departmental responsibilities, all interns will participate in a two-day training program during their first week and weekly lunch discussions with Museum staff. Field trips and networking opportunities with interns at other arts-related organizations in the greater Princeton area will also be arranged.

The summer internship program runs from June 7, 2010, to August 13, 2010. Undergraduate students are paid $13 per hour. Graduate students must have completed at least their first year of either an M.A. or Ph.D. program in art history, archaeology, or a related field, and are paid $18 per hour.

Applications must include a cover letter describing the applicant's specific interest in the internship program and how a museum internship relates to the applicant's larger educational or career goals; a C.V. or resumé; two letters of academic recommendation; and an official transcript. Please submit all materials by Friday, March 26, 2010, to:
