STUDENTdirect

The STUDENTdirect Pre- Internship Program (SdPIP) offers undergraduate, graduate, and post graduate students an opportunity to gain practical work experience through a paid/ unpaid internship related to their academic field of study or area of interest.

The SdPIP program provides an opportunity for students to learn about the media industry while making a social impact as they apply classroom theories and concepts to real world problems.

The types of internship opportunities offered to college/ high school interns may include but are not limited to: human resources, marketing, advertisement, operations, finance, public outreach, general business, international relations, and administration.

SdPIP intern assignments are reviewed every six months; an intern has an opportunity to work up to a maximum of two years in his/ her assignment. An intern can submit an application with resume and cover letter at any time.
