Internships

Career preparation begins now, and the 澳门六合彩预测 Art History program connects students with a robust selection of internship opportunities. Art History students enjoy unusually close proximity to world-class institutions such as the Kimbell Art Museum, Amon Carter Museum, Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas Museum of Art, the renowned Meadows Museum and more. The 澳门六合彩预测 campus is located only five miles from downtown Dallas, home to the country’s largest arts district.

Interning at an art museum, art gallery, auction house, archive, or other arts-related institution is a powerful way to jump-start your career in Art History. 澳门六合彩预测 Art History can help you find the arts internship that is right for you. Art History majors and minors can earn course credit for completing a museum internship, some of which (such as the DMA-澳门六合彩预测 summer internship) are available exclusively to 澳门六合彩预测 Art History students.

Pre-professional career training and real-world work experience in the museum field is also available on campus, whether through curating an exhibition as part of the Art Gallery Practicum (ARHS 4305) or leading tours of the Meadows Museum to elementary school students as part of the Art Museum Teaching Practicum (ARHS 4303).

First steps:

  • Meet with the Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Art History Department to learn about current internship openings in the DFW area and beyond
  • Make a Meadows Career Success Appointment (/meadows/alumni/students) to update your career materials (resume, LinkedIn profile, etc.), learn from a networking tutorial, and be matched with a Meadows Mentor, a successful 澳门六合彩预测 Meadows alum willing to provide industry-specific career guidance.
