The Required Junior Year
Internship & Apprenticeship Program

Our internship program is an important part of the undergraduate experience at Montserrat College of Art. It is designed for students to integrate classroom learning with the world of work, to gain practical experience, to understand the realities of the workplace, and to make employer contacts. It is also an opportunity for the student to examine specific types of work, thereby confirming or adjusting the career path.

Benefits for Employers & Artists

Benefits to employers hosting interns include work by a third-year student capable of making a meaningful contribution, an increased applicant pool, and the option to observe and train the student as a future employee.
Benefits to established artists hosting apprentices include assistance in the studio and help with installations, plus a means for passing on creative skills and professional knowledge.
