EXAMPLES OF INTERNSHIPS

The anthropology internship course, ANTH 190, is new in Fall 2010, however students have done non-credit anthropology internships in the past. Our students have worked at the Brooklyn Museum, the American Museum of Natural History, several non-profit agencies, including the Pratt Area Community Council in Brooklyn, Make the Road New York, Mothers on the Move, and the Association of Neighborhood and Housing Development. We currently have several students working with Mapping the African-American or MAPP project – an anthropology/archaeology-education project partnership between Columbia University and Hofstra University’s Center for Public Archaeology.
