Supervised by the museum’s curatorial team, interns are introduced to curatorial work, collection management, programs, and other administrative museum operations. Student interns serve as active and integral members of the Rose Art Museum team.

SCRAM (Student Committee for the Rose Art Museum) is a student group that works closely with the Rose Art Museum to organize events for the Brandeis student body.
Funded through the generous contributions of Mr. Alex Barkas '68 and his wife, Ms. Lynda Wijcik, the goal of this committee is to strengthen the relationship between the Rose and Brandeis students.
SCRAM events expose students to the Rose who may be unfamiliar with the museum as well as provide students with opportunities for more in-depth interaction with the museum and its collection. Additionally, SCRAM serves as the voice of the student body to the Rose Art Museum, communicating student interests and opinions.
Past events include SCRAM JAM (a dance party held at the museum), Gallery Talks, Study Night at the Rose, Yoga in the Rose, and live music performances.
The Rose is now hiring a new head of SCRAM. Download the position description (PDF) for further details.
Students, if you are interested in being a part of SCRAM or getting SCRAM involved in an event you are planning, please email roseartmuseum@brandeis.edu.
