Who hires Missouri Journalism students for internships?
Employers all over the world.

With all of the hands-on experience offered at the Missouri School of Journalism, we like to say that "Your first job starts at Missouri." After looking at this list of internships, however, it might be more appropriate to say, "Your first few jobs start at Missouri." Employers all around the world know the value of a Missouri education and enthusiastically hire our students for highly competitive internships. Students gain valuable skills from working at the Columbia Missourian, KOMU or Mojo Ad that give them the edge when competing for these internships locally, nationally and globally. Best of all, these internships allow students to explore different career options within the field of journalism.

The following is a list of recent internships our students have held in media outlets and agencies across the country. At right are links to alumni profiles of Missouri grads who work at those organizations, proof that an internship and networking are the keys to the full-time job you want. Check it out, and imagine where you want to go.
