Description

The Studebaker National Museum was established to be the center for education, preservation, and interpretation of design and innovation.  This is accomplished through programming, active collecting, and the display of vehicles, archives, and artifacts that showcase the local and global influence of Studebaker and related industrial innovators.  In pursuit of this vision, the Museum is one of only three automotive museums to earn accreditation from the American Alliance of Museums.

An important part of successfully fulfilling the mission of the Museum is to provide foundational experiences for the next generation of Museum professionals. The Museum is seeking internship candidates who wish to gain hands-on experience in the museum or non-profit management fields.

  • Create and release material designed to promote the Museum for social media and the Museum website
  • Record and manage Museum visitor and donor records.
