Journalism: Careers

Cover the world.

Across a variety of media, our graduates are covering the news—from local and national television and radio stations, to print and online journalism organizations. Through intensive coursework, internships in the country's largest media markets, and Boston's ideal location for news, you will be more than adequately prepared for a professional career in journalism. Joining your past experience with your Emerson investigative and news reporting skills, you may become a news director, anchor, editor, investigator, reporter, or producer nationwide.

Internships

To complement your classroom experience, you are encouraged to take part in an internship. Known for offering high quality work, Emerson students are sought after by news organizations throughout the city, from The Boston Globe to network news affiliates. Alumni, faculty, guest speakers, and the Office of Career Services are all helpful resources for finding an internship to suit your professional goals.
