The Co-op Program, implemented in 1937, offers undergraduate students an entry-level opportunity to become familiar with the operations of a daily newspaper, whether they’re interested in the editorial or the business side of Boston Globe Media.
The Boston Globe co-op program provides students with an opportunity to attain real-life work experience related to their field of study.

2025 Internship at The Salt Lake Tribune
The nonprofit Salt Lake Tribune is hiring a full-time, summer reporting intern for 2025.
The 10-week paid internship will run from roughly June 2 through Aug. 8, though there is flexibility depending on an applicant’s school schedule.
The application period closes at midnight on March 14, 2025.
Participation in a college journalism program is preferred, but not required. We are looking for those who wish to pursue a career in journalism.
As a reporting intern based in Salt Lake City this summer, you will have an opportunity to work on daily stories as staff members, as well as enterprise pieces.
Candidates should have a basic understanding of news standards and ethics and experience in publishing journalism. You should be able to meet deadlines, report thoroughly, write clearly, and grasp the elements of storytelling. You must understand balance in journalism and impartiality in reporting.
Our interns fill various roles in the newsroom, and your assignment may include night or weekend work. We will provide onboarding training and informational sessions with newsroom staff.
AAJA announces Simon and June Li Leadership Transformation Fellowship
The Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) is pleased to announce the Simon and June Li Leadership Transformation Fellowship, a groundbreaking fellowship program that supports the best and the brightest Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) journalists to accelerate their media leadership and entrepreneurial journeys.
The Leadership Transformation Fellowship will eliminate the cost barrier to leading journalism executive and entrepreneurial programs for the most promising AAPI leaders, including graduates of AAJA’s renowned leadership development program, Executive Leadership Program (ELP).
As part of their commitment to developing AAPI newsroom leadership, Simon and June Li are also investing in ELP. Their support will allow AAJA to expand the curriculum and recruit additional executive coaches and faculty, and provide stipends to AAJA leaders who do not have access to newsroom training budgets.
Applicants to the Fellowship would apply to programs such as Columbia’s Sulzberger Executive Leadership Program, CUNY’s Executive Program in News Innovation and Leadership, and Poynter’s Media Transformation Challenge. Fellowships would be awarded contingent on acceptance to the applicant’s program.
Applications to the 2024-2025 Simon and June Li Fellowship are open and fellows will be accepted on a rolling deadline. In the inaugural year, two fellowships will be awarded. Fellows will be encouraged to give back to the AAJA family by volunteering to serve as mentors, judges, and fill other roles.
