The Saltz Internship Program is based on the Museum's Saltz Expedition Centers--interactive centers that bring
to life the scientific concepts of the Museum's Halls. Key to the success of these Centers is a corps of talented
and engaging interns who encourage visitors to "think like scientists."
Interns use hands-on interactives and technologies, such as an infrared camera and digital USB microscopes, to
guide visitors of all ages in investigations of artifacts and specimens. In the Hall of Ocean Life, visitors might
examine a piece of baleen, use microscopes to observe live plankton, or conduct experiments to understand
how swim bladders allow fish to control their depth in the water. Lasers, telescopes and UV sensitive materials
are just a few of the tools that help visitors understand some properties of light and other principles of
astrophysics in the Hall of the Universe.
Working with the Saltz Expedition Centers is a great opportunity for high school students to meet Museum
scientists, explore scientific content, learn valuable skills for working with and teaching learners of all ages,
and have an impact on the experiences of thousands of Museum visitors.

disabilities, or who have lacked opportunities to pursue their scientific interests because of limited access to the
mentors and facilities.
This program is designed to expose high school students to different careers in the biological sciences and
anthropology, with an emphasis on scientific research, in order to prepare them and make them stronger
candidates for college science programs.
