Internships

Art majors may earn credit for internships served in art museums or other art-related businesses or institutions. Internships can provide an important opportunity to gain "real world" experience in your chosen field. Individual department faculty and the Career Resource Center can be consulted for internship information.

Internship proposal forms are available in the Art Department Office and need to be approved and signed by your faculty coordinator, department chair and field supervisor. At the completion of the internship, field supervisors must submit a letter of evaluation to the Art Department.
