Fall Internship Deadline: July 1, 2010 (Application online in March)
An important part of the internship is the Journalism & the Free Society summer seminar. The seminar takes place from June 5–11, 2010, at Bryn Mawr College, in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. Please check your calendar before applying to the internship program since all journalism interns are required to attend the seminar. IHS provides lodging, meals, and travel to Bryn Mawr for all the interns.
The seminar has a mix of lectures, workshops, discussion-groups, and social activities. Practicing journalists will teach many of the lectures and talk about their experiences and offer career advice. There will be several lectures on contemporary economics and political science as they relate to journalism. You will get a chance to meet and network with other journalism interns as well as with faculty and the internship program’s staff.
You may separately apply to the internship program and the seminar. If you are accepted to the seminar but not the internship program, you will have to pay your travel costs to the seminar.
