AAAS
Minority Science Writers Internship
The American
Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is proud to
offer a summer internship program for minority students interested
in journalism as a career and who want to learn about science
writing. Experience what it's like to cover the scientific and
technological issues that shape our global community.
The internship
takes place each summer at the Washington, DC headquarters of
AAAS's Science magazine, the largest interdisciplinary
journal in the world. Interns spend 10 weeks at Science
under the guidance of award-winning reporters and editors, and
have a chance to experience what science writers do for a living.
Interns are expected to contribute to the weekly news section,
including bylined articles in the print and electronic news service.
The paid internship
provides for travel to and from the internship site in Washington,
DC. Living accommodations and expenses are the responsibility
of the Intern. The internship runs from June to mid-August.
