Department of History Summer Internship Award

The Department of History Summer Internship Award is established to assist outstanding History majors who are pursuing summer internships. All applications from History majors undertaking summer internships with appropriate organizations are welcome, but preference is given to students with unpaid internships. A strong academic record and some indication that the internship will include pre-professional training are positives for the application. This award supports students gaining practical experience in history-related fields during the summer months. The internship should involve preparation of a tangible product, acquisition of a new marketable skill, or other forms of pre-professional training. Recipients are expected to write a three to five-page report on their internship experience for the Department upon completion.
