The program is designed for individuals with a deep commitment to extending
the reach of science journalism into communities where there is currently
limited participation. By training science journalists with a commitment to
diverse communities, the program will help to build the capacity of those
individuals to report on scientific issues to a general audience and expand
access to the profession to persons including, but not limited to,
individuals from diverse populations.

The internship takes place each summer at the Washington, D.C. headquarters
of AAAS's Science magazine, the largest interdisciplinary journal in the
world. Interns spend ten weeks at Science under the guidance of
award-winning reporters and editors practicing what science writers do for a
living. They have a chance to meet leading scientists, attend conferences
and hearings, and cover breaking news. Interns are expected to contribute to
all facets of the news operation, including writing bylined articles for the
print magazine and online news service, engaging in social media, and
contributing to other news products.

Interns receive a weekly stipend as well as the cost of round-trip travel to
and from Washington, D.C. The internship runs from early June to mid-August.
This year's application deadline is Feb. 1, 2019. To be eligible, applicants
must be enrolled in an undergraduate academic program at the time they
submit their application.
