This internship with available arts and cultural institutions in the ACT is a prestigious and demanding program. The internship is designed to provide students with practical insights into the activities and the workings of art museums or art galleries. The specific nature of the contact work will depend on the requirements of the art museum specialist supervisor, who may include curators, research program managers, registrars, art educators and learning and access programmers. The internship aims to provide an opportunity for learning about the field in preparation towards an art museum career. Acceptance into the internship program is a competitive process, and is subject to the availability of positions within our partner institutions. The course convener arranges and places ARTH4030 students in appropriate arts and cultural institutions. Given the time that it takes to do this, there is an internal application that students must complete and submit to the course convener at least 2 months before the start of the semester/session that they wish to enrol in. Before submitting their application, students are also expected to contact the course convener and make an appointment to discuss their interest in the program. Application forms can be requested directly from ARTH4030 convener; They will also be distributed to students via the Art History Honours convener.
