The News Internship is for students interested in a 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. Duties might include writing stories for critiques, monitoring news services, rewriting news service copy, and researching stories. Intern will work with producers, reporters and other newsroom employees and receive feedback on their efforts.
Interns must be college/university students and receive college credit for the internships. 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). Station department heads will oversee the internship to evaluate, monitor, and assess the intern’s progress and ensure they are receiving the proper education/training. The student is aware that this is an UN-PAID, SUPERVISED INTERNSHIP. The student is responsible for his/her own transportation.
