Pennsylvania Journalism Internship (May 2009)

| No Comments | No TrackBacks
The Pennsylvania Society of Newspapers Editors (PSNE) will for the first time offer an internship for college juniors and seniors enrolled in journalism or communications programs in Pennsylvania.
For five days (May 27, 2009 through May 31, 2009), student interns will cover the annual Pennsylvania Press Conference and Keystone Press Awards for a comprehensive online operation entitled The PSNE Online Reporter. Throughout the weekend conference in May 2009, students will have a chance to work one on one with industry professionals to produce the live Web site, conduct interviews, report on industry issues, cover convention speeches and the awards programs, and have a chance to network with editors from all over the state.

This is a chance to build your resume and make contacts for that first job.

Students who are interested in reporting, shooting video, taking photographs, designing a Web site and copy editing should apply. Applications are due by Friday, December 19, 2008. Notification of acceptance will be sent to students by Friday, January 23, 2009.

The internship will pay a stipend of $150 to each student and will cover accommodations with most meals being provided. Some students may also make arrangements for academic credit for the internship.

QUESTIONS? Please contact Janet Bevan, Manager of Outreach & Partnerships, Pennsylvania Newspaper Association Foundation at 717-703-3004 or by email at janetb@pa-news.com.
