HIST 395/495 Internship in History
Students can apply the theoretical and content knowledge they acquire in their history courses in a professional setting through an internship in history. This is an opportunity to explore potential career paths and creative applications of their individual interests in history. Students should plan the internship with the appropriate faculty supervisor and work closely with the professional staff in the Office of Professional, Service, and Global Engagement (PSGE) to identify a suitable host site. Some examples of past internship sites include: Hartwick’s Paul F. Cooper, Jr. Archives and Yager Museum, the Baseball Hall of Fame, the Farmer’s Museum, and many other local and regional archives, historical societies, and museums.
