Intern, News

The News Internship is for students interested in practical experience in broadcast and/or digital journalism. Internships can be for reporters, photographers, editors, newscast producers, web producers, assignment editors, just to name a few.

Students are expected to obtain and complete any forms necessary to receive credit for the internship experience. The intern's college/university academic advisor (and institution guidelines) determines the amount of credit available (and subsequently, the amount of time an intern will be available on a weekly basis).

The student is aware that this is an UN-PAID SUPERVISED INTERNSHIP. The student is responsible for his/her own transportation.
