The History Division, United States Marine Corps, offers internship opportunities for college students to learn while working on a historical project. The program’s intent is to give promising and talented students meaningful work and a learning experience.
The History Division offers internships in four areas. They are: reference historians (servicing information requests from public and official sources); historical writing (primarily researching material to support writing projects, largely in primary source collections, although opportunities to compose original pieces are presented); oral historian assistants (cataloging and servicing collections) and editing and design; preparing manuscripts for publication, checking for presentation and visual appeal. Internships may lead to a published monograph, catalog or finding aid. There is an emerging requirement for an intern with webmaster skills.
Applications are due no later than 27 Feb 2015.
