Summer Media Internship

The internship provides a minimum of 140 hours of on-the-job experience in print journalism, Internet and new media, publishing, film, television, radio, and other writing-related professions. Interns put their journalism classroom experience into practice by working for a media organization under the supervision of professional mentors and journalism faculty; they simultaneously participate in a writingintensive, web-based companion course designed to support and enhance the internship experience. This course is similar to JRN 5050 (offered each fall) and JRN 5051 (offered each spring). Students may enroll once only in any two of the three courses; they are permitted to take only two internships for credit. To be accepted into the course, students must arrange an interview with the faculty internship coordinator duringthe semester preceding the start of the internship.
