The Internship Placement Process

Journalism / Publishing

Journalism influences the world around us by  passing on news and current events through newspaper, TV, radio, magazines, the internet and other forms of new media. Professions in the field include reporters, editors, photographers, TV and radio broadcast announcers, among others.  Depending on interest, a journalist can specialize in fields such as politics, sports, science or investigative topics. Journalists can be found writing about high school sports for a local newspaper or covering the white house and preparing questions for a Presidential press conference. Working on photos, articles, artwork and advertisements, publishers use the help of desktop publishing software to lay out publications such as magazines, novels and various content page by page.

A CE journalism or publishing intern may investigate information for an upcoming publication, work on sites at a live broadcast, work for a publishing house, or fact check vital information prior to an article's release.

Past CE interns have:

  • Assisted in creating and editing magazines, newsletters and other exciting publications.
  • Conducted interviews for stories and articles
  • Learned how to professionally apply layouts in publications
  • Gained exposure to high pressure deadlines 
  • And much, much more...

Testimonials

My passions are the environment and media. CE placed me in an internship involving both my interests where I got to work in a television studio learning about production, but they also allowed my to interview people on environmental topics. We eventually made an amazing documentary on environmental policy and I got to experience the entire process

My dream is to get my work published and I can proudly say I fulfilled that dream this past summer!
- Becky
“I told CE that I was interested in journalism, politics, and film production and they worked hard to learn what facets of each career I was passionate in at a more specific level. By speaking with the director I was able to learn more about myself and what careers were a good fit. They then placed me in an internship that was a perfect match! I got to interview people on heated political matters and learn how to document it on film with real professionals. It was amazing!!
- Amanda
