NANTUCKET – The Nantucket Maria Mitchell Association is reminding students across the region of the many opportunities available to them through the organization in 2019.
The group offers a variety of summer internships at its Aquarium, Natural Science Museum, Observatories, Mitchell House, and in the field for our Summer Discovery Education Programs.
Qualified undergraduate and graduate students usually study in the fields of marine biology, natural science, education, historic preservation, and astronomy.
The Nantucket Maria Mitchell Association is a private non-profit organization founded in 1902 and located on Nantucket.
Maria Mitchell believed in “learning by doing” and today that philosophy is reflected in MMA’s mission statement, programs, research projects, and other activities.
The Maria Mitchell Association operates two observatories, a natural science museum, an aquarium, and preserves the historic birthplace of Maria Mitchell. A wide variety of science and history-related programming is offered throughout the year for people of all ages.
