Graduating college seniors who are interested in pursuing a career in political journalism can apply for a fellowship.

NBC Universal is offering the Tim Russert Fellowship, which will give one early-career journalist a one-year, paid position in the NBC News Washington bureau.

The fellow will work on a rotational basis in several areas of the Washington Bureau including Meet the Press and the NBC News Political Unit. Responsibilities will include assisting talent and producers, participating in news shoots, and conducting story research.

Applicants must have a bachelor's degree in journalism, communications or political science, along with a cumulative GPA of at least 3.5. Active involvement in journalism through work experience, on-campus media involvement and/or internships is an advantage.

The deadline is May 10.
