The Hastings Center Intern Program provides undergraduate and graduate students the opportunity to work at The Hastings Center, either on a particular project or project-in-development or in a particular Hastings Center department such as Library, Editorial, or Development. For summer internships (May - August), applications should be received before March 1st. At all other times, prospective interns should apply at least 4 weeks before they would anticipate beginning the internship.

Applicants should send (email is encouraged) or fax a letter of application indicating why they wish to intern at the Center, along with a resume or curriculum vitae, academic transcript, writing sample, and the names of two references to: visitors@thehastingscenter.org.

The Center is generally unable to compensate interns for their time, travel, or living expenses and most applicants should plan to fully cover all their own expenses (applicants are encouraged to explore any internship funding opportunities offered by their institutions).

Emily Murray Stipend

Thanks to a generous gift from the family of Emily Murray, the Center offers two U.S. $500  stipends annually to interns who are studying philosophy or religion. Emily Murray Stipends will be awarded based on:

• Academic ability, including strength of interest in philosophy or religion (please include a copy of your academic record with your application for an Emily Murray Stipend), and
• Ability of the applicant to make a substantial contribution to the Center’s work.

The Center recognizes that the cost of most internships will exceed the value of the stipend.
