Internships

Internships are a key part of the BER program, providing professional work experience, numerous bylines, and often job offers. BER students work a full-time, ten-week internship during the summer between their second and third semesters. Many students also work as interns during their regular academic semesters. BER employs its own internship director/career counselor, Annalyn Kurtz, who assists students with resumes, job advice, and finding internships with leading business news organizations. Students can work in print, broadcast, or online, and they publish or produce numerous pieces during their internships.
