The Dow Jones News Fund internship program has a legacy of excellence dating back to 1960. Each year DJNF arranges paid summer internships for nearly 100 college students across the country and provides them with advanced hands-on training, industry mentors and a robust peer and alumni network to tap into.

Interns attend one-week training programs before reporting to work in paid internships at top media companies for 10 to 12 weeks. Weekly salaries start at $525. Interns who are enrolled full-time or graduates with federal loans are eligible for $1,500 scholarships.

The Dow Jones News Fund offers internships in five areas: business reporting, data journalism, digital media, multiplatform editing and audience engagement.

College sophomores, juniors, seniors and graduate students are eligible to apply by Nov. 14, 2024. 

International students already in the U.S. and able to obtain OPT/CPT through their universities are also eligible.

We place interns in various newsrooms, not just Dow Jones publications. Some of the cities DJNF interns work in: Austin, Boston, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis, New York, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington, D.C.
