Internships with the Valpo Archives
As part of Valpo’s effort to expand internship opportunities, the History Department partners with the Valparaiso University Archives and Special Collections (VUASC) to offer internships for history students. Through HIST 386/590, students conduct original research using VUASC materials and explore topics that highlight Valpo’s role in Indiana’s broader history. Under Professor Ostoyich’s supervision, students complete substantial research papers, present their findings publicly, and create custom-made books archived in VUASC. They also plan exhibits for display in the Christopher Center.
