Learn more about the Center for the Humanities and Public Sphere’s new Public Humanities Internship Program for Ph.D. Students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for summer 2020. Each internship is a paid six-week .50 FTE Graduate Research Assistantship during the period of summer A. Ph.D. students will work on-site at non-profit organizations on projects that positively impact environmental, cultural, and educational sectors. Graduate students will expand their professional skillset and network while gaining meaningful humanistic work experiences beyond an academic setting.
