Internships
The Brandeis Journalism Program champions experiential learning, and all students must complete an internship to fulfill the journalism minor. Our students have completed internships with media organizations nationwide, ranging from podcast companies to NPR affiliates to their hometown daily print newspapers. We work alongside our students to find opportunities that utilize and expand their journalistic skills while informing and enhancing their future career goals across disciplines.
NOTE: To receive credit for the internship in the Journalism Program, students must take JOUR 89A: Contemporary Media: Internship and Analysis after completing their internship. In place of an outside internship, students may take AMST/JOUR 109b: Reinventing Journalism for the Local Level (during which they will produce local journalism and get published work experience). Students who choose that route must still complete JOUR 89A after taking AMST/JOUR 109b. Before students enroll in AMST/JOUR 109b, we strongly recommend that they first complete JOUR 101.
