Hi all-

I'm just about to complete my PhD in anthropology (should be finished by
mid-to-late November) and I'm looking for a museum position. I'm hoping that
 some of you who subscribe to this list either know of positions or leads
for positions. I'll highlight some of my training/qualifications just
briefly for anyone interested:

*BA, Anthropology, U. of Pittsburgh
*MA, Museum Studies, U. of Kansas
*PhD (soon), Anthropology, Australian National University

Museum Experience:
-Presently co-curating a major exhibition with a Dutch Museum set to open in
Leiden in 2001.

Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of Natural History

Research Collaborator and Program Assistant, Department of Anthropology,
Asian Cultural History Program.

MA included training in:
· Museum Management, Human Resources (needs assessment and supervision,
long-range planning and development) and Physical Plant (audience
accessibility, security, and environmental monitoring),
· Collections Management (registration, conservation, integrated pest
management, collections accessibility),
· Exhibitions (interpretation, storyline development, artefact and
technology selection),
· Public Education (design of public programming for History, Art,
Anthropology, and Natural History Museums).

As a requirement of the program I had both paid and unpaid internships
and/or hands-on training in:

Anthropology)
· Exhibitions (National Agriculture Hall of Fame, Bonner Springs, KS)
· Public Education (University of Kansas Museum of Natural History, Spencer

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
