The University of Houston’s World Cultures and Literatures (WCL) program is helping students turn classroom learning into real-world impact.
Through unique internships at Houston’s leading cultural institutions, such as the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (MFAH), Asia Society of Texas, and Islamic Arts Society, students gain hands-on experience in fields that connect to their studies.
Each semester, three to five students are selected for internships supported by stipends that make participation financially possible for students balancing work and academics.
“These students are highly motivated and incredibly talented,” said Mohan Ambikaipaker, director of the WCL and CLASS Honors program.
