Philosophy student Samuel Pleitez Duran completed the Museum Studies internship in Spring 2026 with the Orange County Regional History Center. Trainings in Humanities & Cultural Studies helped him craft an original assessment model called "CARIE" that evaluates student engagement and learning retention based on the museum's exhibits. He was also featured in the OCRHC July 2026 Newsletter.

The department also offers an internship with AdventHealth. These internships are service-learning (SL) designated and emphasize experiential learning and real-world applications. Prior coursework in Humanities, Religion, and Philosophy is required.
