The Strong offers unpaid, competitive internship opportunities for students interested in history and museums. Interns may work with The Strong’s collections, research, education, exhibit development, graphic design, or marketing and communications teams to support the museum and its International Center for the History of Electronic Games, Brian Sutton-Smith Library and Archives of Play, Woodbury School, and American Journal of Play. For example, students may conduct research for exhibits, learn how to handle and care for artifacts, or assist with the development of educational programs for children. Specific internship opportunities are listed below. However, The Strong is open to creating individual internship experiences based on the interests of the intern and available projects at the museum.
Submit completed internship packets to Human Resources, The Strong, One Manhattan Square, Rochester, NY 14607 or at hr@museumofplay.org.
Please include all of the following:
The Strong will consider each student’s interests and determine whether an appropriate project is available. If one is, the applicant will receive an interview with Human Resources and, if appropriate, members of The Strong’s history, collections, research, education, exhibits, or marketing and communications teams.
