 Media Internship Program

This is a unique opportunity for upper level students at New York State colleges and universities looking for a career in broadcasting, particularly television news.  The Media Internship Program provides real, hands-on experience. Interns don’t observe others, they work as TV news reporters, photographers, and editors, shoulder-to-shoulder with the professional press corps at the State Capitol in Albany.  The brief video shows the program in action.
