National Park Service Summer Internships

The National Council for Preservation Education (NCPE), in cooperation with the National Park Service (NPS) and other partnering government agencies, is pleased to offer internships during the summer of 2020, beginning in May/June 2020. NCPE has partnered with the NPS since 1992 to connect post-secondary students and recent graduates in historic preservation, cultural resource management, and related fields to projects at a wide variety of sites and divisions within the NPS system and other agencies annually. Approximately 110 internships are available during the summer; another 66 positions will be offered in the academic year 2021. Click here for a description of the process for applying for a summer 2020 internship, and revisit this page in October for information about academic year internships. In both cases, completing an application is the first step in securing an internship.

The length of an internship can vary from 10 to 30 weeks if full-time (40 hours/week) or longer if on a part-time schedule. The exact starting dates will be determined on a case-by-case basis with the NPS supervisor. Stipends are paid at $15/hour unless otherwise listed. Please note that interns are not NCPE or NPS employees; stipends are academic awards rather than wages.
