Fall- and Spring-Semester Internships for Undergraduate and Graduate Students

Current students and recent graduates can learn about museum practice and gain professional skills in a variety of fields through internships at The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Cloisters during the academic year.

In addition to developing their skills through projects in various departments, our interns join a community of fellow interns and staff during their time at The Met. All interns participate in a weekly program introducing them to projects, activities, and staff across the Museum. This might include talks in the galleries, presentations by staff, lunches with individual staff members, or behind-the-scenes tours of Museum departments.

The Met strongly encourages applications from students and recent graduates who identify as members of groups that are underrepresented in the museum field and the arts. For more information on the program, please visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s website.

Deadlines for the program are as follows:
