Paid Internships

The Arts Amplifier offers short, paid internships through the year for graduate students and post-doctoral fellows in the Faculty of Arts. We typically advertise these opportunities to our mailing list and host a Q&A session with the hiring organization to give interested students an opportunity to meet their potential employer and ask questions.

Paid internships can include work like:

  • Performing a literature review and collecting data to support the health and wellbeing of people in a marginalized community
  • Analyzing information related to youth climate change advocacy
  • Running surveys related to the health and wellbeing of student employees
  • Investigating the impact of not-for-profits on community resilience and sustainability
