Marine Historical Ecology and Zooarchaeology Internship

This internship will support two upper-level undergraduate students or recent graduates in the historical ecology of northern quahog clam populations in the Long Island Sound. This project investigates possible size changes in quahog over time that could have been driven by the economic pressures of the wampum trade, environmental changes, or other factors. The two interns will visit archaeological shell collections housed in Connecticut to learn how to identify and measure common marine shellfish species from the region. Interns will also learn to use project data to conduct small research projects of their own and will have the opportunity to present the results of these projects at the 2026 Annual Meeting of the Society for American Archaeology Conference in San Francisco, CA.

Application Deadline: March 1, 2025

Internship Type: In person, full time (40 hours/week) in Guilford, Storrs, and Ledyard, Connecticut in August 2025.
