Work experience placements and internships
Each year the
department offers a
limited number of curatorial assistant internships. Due to heavy
demand we restrict these to undergraduate or graduate students on
courses with a direct relevance to Egyptian culture. Placements are
for a period of between two and four weeks, usually
during the summer vacation.
Applicants should send a full CV and two letters of reference
with a covering letter suggesting preferred dates to:

Please note that it is not possible for placements to work
unsupervised in the study collections or to handle objects.
The department cannot offer any payment, or assistance with
travelling costs or accommodation.
