“I participated in the Peabody's summer internship program and have assisted with research in the Meso Lab for two years now. Working at the Peabody is a unique, engaging opportunity for students and has been one of the best parts of my college experience.”

The Peabody Museum offers internships that provide practical hands-on experience with many aspects of the Museum's activities. Designed around specific individual projects, the Museum also provides an overview of Museum activities as a whole. Interns have contributed siginifcantly to host departments within the Museum including archives, collections management, conservation, curatorial research, exhibit/research, public programs, and registration.
Summer Internships
Summer internships emphasize a customized educational and training component, as well as group program activities. Each winter, the Museum circulates applications for the university-level Summer Internship Program, focusing primarily on Harvard students. The program, which is co-sponsored by the Harvard University Native American Program, typically runs eight weeks, from early June to early August.
Please revisit this page in January and February, when the summer internship announcement and application are posted each year.
