NASA’s 2013 Summer Journalism and Multimedia Internships are now posted and accepting applications.
NASA invites students working towards degrees in journalism, communications, media relations, science writing, interactive journalism, or broadcast journalism, to participate in our science storytelling program - before you graduate.
You'll gain on the job experience as you work with a leading team of writers and multimedia producers to create and share content from some of NASA's most exciting missions: mind-blowing results from the Hubble Space Telescope; breaking solar storm imagery and the emerging field of space weather; new views of the moon from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter; and stories of our changing planet from NASA's Earth observing fleet of satellites. Students wishing to explore the intersection between print, broadcast journalism and social media environments are particularly encouraged to apply.
Duties: Writing, editing, pitching, recording, creating, crunching, captioning, surfing, shooting, feeding, porting, posting, designing, updating, networking, texting, tweeting, playing, mashing, and exploring. You'll collaborate on sophisticated communications campaigns and work on web features, press releases, newsletter articles, press conferences, media interviews, tweet ups, satellite media tours, and video news releases. Student will create stories, features, and content for NASA's public web, video, and social media ecosystems. Students will also serve as "reporters" and will cover activities. Excellent writing skills and personal participation in social media communities required. Experience in newsroom, web, video, still photography and multimedia environments desired.
Position is located at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD. The internship is open to both undergraduates and students working toward graduate degrees. This is a paid internship with an estimated $6k stipend.
