Journalism Internship Steps

1. Determine where and when to do your internship and for how many credits. One credit is given for every 50 hours worked. 
2. Contact your journalism adviser to set up an appointment to discuss your internship plans.
3. Complete the Journalism Internship Application/Contract (which requires your journalism adviser's signature), then deliver to the Journalism Chair. The application can be found on the Arts & Sciences Resource page.
4. The Journalism Chair assigns you an internship adviser (who may be different from your regular journalism academic adviser).
5. The Journalism Internship Application/Contract then is forwarded to the Dean's office for approval and you are then notified by the registrar about registering for the course. 
6. Once you are registered and the semester begins, you may begin your internship. You will work with your internship adviser to complete regular weekly logs and assessment forms.
