Internships at the DANK Haus Chicago
Internships are offered by the DANK Haus German Cultural Center many departments throughout the year and enable students to gain first-hand experience in their areas of interest or study. Interns, working under the guidance of the board of directors, curators or department heads, assist in routine departmental work that ranges from special projects and research to clerical/office membership support.
Interns are college students, or graduate students. Internships vary from department to department; a majority of internships are offered unpaid of for academic credit. Students are responsible for making appropriate arrangements with their schools to receive credit for internships. Hours vary and are flexible; however, a minimum of 14 hours per week is generally expected.
