Humanities at Work LEAD Program at the Charles River Campus- SPRING 2027-STUDENT INTEREST FORM

Gain hands-on experience in museums, cultural institutions, and creative organizations while building real-world skills, professional connections, and career readiness in Spring 2027!

The Humanities at Work Program is a semester-long opportunity for undergraduate students in the UMass Amherst College of Humanities and Fine Arts to live and learn at the Charles River Campus in Newton while completing an internship in Boston and the Greater Boston Area. Students combine academic coursework with hands-on professional experience (6-9 academic credits, 18–27 hours per week), applying their humanities and fine arts skills in real-world settings while building career-ready competencies.

The program launches in Spring 2027,  and is open to majors and minors across the College of Humanities and Fine Arts. 

The Charles River Campus is a secondary UMass Amherst campus, so all courses, credits, tuition, financial aid, and student services apply just like they do in Amherst—and yes, it’s still UMass Dining! 

THIS IS AN INTEREST FORM, NOT AN APPLICATION TO THE PROGRAM. THE APPLICATION WILL OPEN ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15.

Priority consideration deadline: October 10, 2026

We will review all applications on a rolling basis, with a final deadline of October 31. Applications received earlier will have a higher chance of placement in their preferred internships.
