Internships at the Smithsonian Institution are as varied as the museums and research centers themselves. From Art History to Zoology, exhibit building to investments, Smithsonian Internships provide workplace-based learning experiences for a wide range of educational and career paths.

Most SI internships are managed at what we call the Unit level—each museum, center, or department develops their own internship opportunities. Many of these are paid opportunities, some are even remote or hybrid. Each unit has their own application deadlines as well. Please read the details for individual opportunities carefully.
