Internships
Working alongside professional journalists, reporting stories for a professional media organization is one of the most valuable educational experiences you can have.
Internships can receive academic credit, and you’ll have a faculty mentor to help you find, apply for, and succeed along the way.
Most School of Communication and Journalism students choose to complete internships as a way of gaining real-world experience and networking with professionals.
Regularly throughout the semester, students receive via email notice of recnetly posted internship opportunities. These internships come to the School through a partnership with the Stony Brook Career Center and SoCJ graduates.
