Broadcast Journalism Internships

In conjunction with New England publishers, agencies, and broadcasters, the School has developed an extensive internship program for print, photo, and broadcast journalism majors.

Internships for superior undergraduates can be arranged with the publishers of weekly and daily newspapers and magazines as well as radio, television, and cable news and public affairs programs. When possible, the student selects a publication within his or her field of specialization. Students may intern either part-time during a regular semester or full time over the summer. For more details, see the course description for COM JO 411/412 or COM JO 413.

Internships are also available year-round to broadcast journalism students at both public and commercial radio and television stations, and at Internet news organizations.

All candidates for internships with credit must have junior standing. All broadcast journalism internship candidates must have junior standing, be enrolled in or have completed COM JO 351, and have a 3.0 grade point average in their COM courses.
