College journalists interested in political reporting can apply for an internship in Washington, D.C.

The Politics and Journalism Semester, sponsored by the Washington Center for Politics & Journalism, brings a dozen college student journalists, whose career goal is political reporting, to Washington each semester. Students learn about campaigns, governance and interest group politics in twice-weekly seminars. They also receive practical experience as interns in major Washington news bureaus.

Students each receive a USD$3,000 stipend to assist with travel and accommodation costs. Academic credit is assigned at the discretion of each student’s school. The program is open to undergraduates, graduate students and recent graduates.
