Teen Summer Program - Youth Design Team

Youth Design Team SUMMER 2012

The Museum is your playground during this three-week Summer internship.  You'll go behind-the-scenes to meet the scientists and staff who make The Field Museum work! From Egyptian mummy experts to web developers to the security guards (who have the BEST stories), you'll get to see the Museum from the inside out...and then tell your own story about it.  Using game-creators, mobile experience-makers, video, audio and social networking, you'll create a project that blows the top off how the world interacts with the Museum's 26 million specimen...less than 1% of which is actually on public display!

Program is FREE, includes meals and CTA assistance. Space is limited to 15. Must have participated in a Digital Planet, previous Youth Design Team, iDig Science or other Field Museum digital program to be eligible. Minimum GPA requirement is 3.2/4.0. Youth Design Team Summer 2012 application process is now open. Click here to apply.
