The interns' primary role is to assist in creating a suite of georeferenced maps of Hong Kong from 1841-1997 using provided archival materials.

Candidates should have some background in late-19th/early-20th-century Chinese, British imperial, or colonial history, an interest in mapping, spatial history, and/or historical geography, and be in good academic standing. No prior experience with mapping software necessary.
