Internship Opportunities at Deutsche Welle
Internships of one to two months are open to students of journalism at German broadcaster Deutsche Welle.
Internships with Deutsche Welle are offered in all departments in which journalistic work is carried out: DW-RADIO, DW-TV, DW-WORLD.DE, DW-AKADEMIE and the communications department. Deutsche Welle places great emphasis on involving the trainee as much as possible in an editorial department’s day-to-day work. The more practical experience the trainee already has, the better his or her chances of being allowed to carry out journalistic or editorial tasks. Applicants must have completed at least three semesters of his/her studies and they must possess some experience of journalism in radio, TV, or multimedia.
For an internship with DW-RADIO, DW-WORLD.DE, DW-AKADEMIE and the communications department in Bonn, applications may be submitted all year round to: jouausb@dw.world.de. For an internship with DW-TV in Berlin, applications for the period between July and December 2011 should be submitted in April. Submissions for Berlin should be made to Fabian von der Mark: fabian.von-der-mark@dw-world.

The Eur@dioNantes team is composed of several young journalists who come from all over Europe and are trained at the radio station in Nantes. They are coached by French professional journalists, who have had years of experience in journalism. For several months the journalists will learn how to create new ways of listening to European information. They will have to immerse themselves into the local environment in Nantes and compare what they see and hear to the wider frame of European news. The aim is to open new perspectives and consider the implications of what is happening on a cultural, economical, social or political level on a local, national and European scale.
