The Dow Jones News Fund invites applicants for
2016 SUMMER INTERNSHIPS

College juniors, seniors and graduate students are invited to apply to the
Dow Jones News Fund for paid summer 2016 internships in data
journalism, digital media, business reporting and news editing. The
application deadline is Nov. 3.

Interns will be trained at New York University, Arizona State University,
the University of Missouri, Temple University, Pennsylvania State
University, and the University of Texas, Austin, before reporting to work.
Interns will earn at least $400 per week for 10 to 12 weeks. Fifty-six
media companies hired 92 interns in 2015.

For the first time, the Fund will offer a data journalism program with
training directed by Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) at the
University of Missouri. Students will learn how to search out, analyze and
report with data.

The Fund's  partnership with American City Business Journals will expand in
2016 to 10 interns. *Students apply here

*Students interested in data journalism, digital media or news
editing, apply here <http://www.jotformpro.com/form/52724974981974>.*

The Fund and sponsoring media cover travel costs to and from training and
to newsrooms. Students who return to school after a successful internship
will receive $1,000 college scholarships. Applicants must take a one-hour
business reporting or editing/digital exam in addition to submitting the
application forms. Posters, brochures and tests have been mailed to
professors on college campuses who have volunteered to serve as test
monitors. (*Note:* The Fund is using a new application process for 2016,
