Teaching and Museum Practicum

ISAW students are required to gain a minimum of two semesters of university teaching experience, the nature of which will be individually determined. Normally, teaching will be done in NYU's core curriculum or in departmental courses, but in some cases teaching experience at other institutions may be counted. It is recommended that students fulfill the teaching requirement in Years 3 and 4 of the doctoral program.

With permission of the ISAW faculty, students may substitute one semester of museum practicum for one of the two required semesters of teaching.

For questions about teaching opportunities or museum practicum, please contact the Associate Director for Academic Affairs.
