Art History Fellowships at the Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Metropolitan Museum of Art annually welcomes a vibrant group of graduate students, museum professionals, and senior scholars to undertake independent study and research related to the Museum’s collections. Fellows become immersed in the life of the Museum through behind-the-scenes tours, weekly gatherings with members of the Museum staff, and tours of the collections and exhibitions. Each spring, we offer a series of fellows’ colloquia, providing an opportunity for the scholars to present short papers on their work in progress to university colleagues, Museum staff, and the academic community.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art offers a variety of paid and unpaid internships at the Met and the Cloisters intended for those with an interest in museum work and education. Interns work closely with curators on special exhibits, ongoing projects, and education. Internships may be for over the summer or during the fall and spring terms. Recent graduates and Master’s students may apply as well.

 

Eligibility: Varies based on fellowship, but all are intended for graduate students.

Deadline: Varies by fellowship; check website
