Dow Jones News Fund Digital Media Internship, with an application deadline in November, offers numerous awards of $1500 each.

Description

The Dow Jones News Fund digital media internships offer a broad range of opportunities for students to flex their various digital skills from video production, photography, podcasting, data visualization, graphic design, website design, audience engagement and social media management. The DJNF digital media crash course covers a little bit of everything, from analyzing web traffic and social media to learning the latest visual and audio storytelling techniques, to make sure interns are ready to jump into our rapidly evolving media ecosystem. College and graduate students who are enrolled in school as of the application deadline are eligible to apply for the college internship programs. This includes December graduates. Former professionals (those who have worked full-time on staff as a journalist for a year or more) in the U.S. or abroad are not eligible. International students who are already in the U.S. and authorized to work on student visas are also eligible to apply. Applicants must submit samples of their work. They must attach 3-5 clips of stories they wrote or links to digital content they produced. For data journalism, applicants may attach code they have written or a data visualization they created; editors can provide headlines, page designs or social media posts. Applicants also need to be able to supply contact information for two references. Once the completed application was received, applicants are emailed an invitation to create an account on Synap to take the test. This test must be completed by November 9, to be considered for the DJNF program. Please visit the award's website for more information.
