Looking for something different to do this spring and summer? The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is offering a paid six-month internship (April through September) with Science Magazine in Washington, D.C.
As some of you know, I was an AAAS Mass Media Fellow in 1995. The program was truly fantastic and life-altering.
In terms of qualifications for the Science News Writer Internship, applicants need to have completed their undergraduate education or be in their senior year of college. They should have interest (and preferably experience) in writing about science for lay people. According to the AAAS, preference will be given to candidates who have published science journalism articles, worked at other science news publications, and/or completed a journalism or science writing program.
The AAAS suggests you visit their job information website to get more information. Applications are due by January 2nd, so get moving!
