Special Programs Administration Student Services Medill's Teaching Media program puts each undergraduate student into a professional newsroom for 11 weeks as a working journalist. The program includes about 125 newspapers, magazines, television stations and online services across the United States. Students are not paid for their work, although each receives a stipend for relocation.
Students also are eligible for reimbursement from their sponsor for work-related expenses.
The program operates during all three regular terms at Medill, running with brief between-term breaks from late September through June. The program does not operate during summers. E-mail inquiries to the graduate or undergraduate admissions offices.
