Where UNH Interns Usually Go


Here's a list
of the places to which UNH most frequently sends interns.

 

Other Places You Might Try

If you want to go to a newspaper, magazine, broadcast station or Web site that UNH doesn't usually work with, you can set up your own internship. Almost any news organization might be willing to take an intern, though some do it only in the summer. The Applying page tells you how to set up your own internship. This page gives you some ideas on where.  We can't guarantee that these places will count as your UNH internship. That depends on the responsibilities you're given.

Just for starters, the American Society of Newspaper Editors site lists papers around the country that take interns. Other papers not on the list also have internships; this American Journalism Review site lists just about every print publication in the world.  For a paper version, check the Editor and Publisher Directory at the library reference desk.  Many of the sites on our job-hunting resources page also contain listings for print, broadcast and online internships. Any search engine can lead you to a zillion internship sites. And try these:

bullet News and photo internships at the Associated Press, world's largest newsgathering organization.
bullet Dow Jones Newspaper Fund summer internships: business reporting, news copy editing, sports copy editing, and online journalism.
bullet And a Dow Jones list of other internships.

'On an internship, you see all your courses coming together.  Both the paper and the community rely on you. Your stories are what people are talking about over coffee, all around town.'

Nate Rice, a reporting intern in summer 2007 at the Gloucester (Mass.) Daily Times .
