Full Job Description

The Morgan Library & Museum welcomes applications for its 2026–2027 Academic Year Internship program. The program provides an introduction to the variety of career opportunities available in museums and special collections libraries. Each intern is assigned to a department relevant to their interest and works with departmental staff on timely topics in that area. Interns also have the opportunity to learn about the Morgan and the museum and special collections fields more generally through professional development opportunities such as facility tours and meetings with museum leadership.

The Morgan especially seeks to provide opportunities to candidates with experiences and perspectives that have not been adequately reflected in the museum and special collections library fields.

Academic year interns generally work up to 14 hours per week, beginning in mid-September and running through early to mid-May. Some internships have specific scheduling requirements as noted in the descriptions below. Interns are expected to make every effort to attend the program’s professional development programs, which may require modifying their schedule from time to time. All internships are on-site at the Morgan.

Ancient Western Asian Seals and Tablets Internship:

This internship within the curatorial department of Ancient Western Asian Seals and Tablets provides an immersive and practical experience tailored for a student aspiring to pursue careers in art, art history, archaeology, libraries, or museums. Working closely with the department head, the intern will actively contribute mainly to two ongoing departmental projects: assisting with exhibition preparations, and organizing, inventorying, and photographing the Seal Impression Study Collection. The intern will handle archaeological objects and work with archival materials connected to Edith Porada. They will have the unique opportunity to receive specialized training in ancient seal carving and the art of creating seal impressions.

Eligibility:

Current enrollment as an undergraduate or graduate student
Strong interest in a career in the museum or research library fields
Eligibility to work in the United States; international candidates must be eligible to participate in a paid internship program in the United States
Strong verbal and written communication skills

Compensation: $19 per hour.

To Apply: Interns will be selected on a competitive basis via an application process. The deadline to apply for an internship is August 10, 2026.
