About the program

Join us for the summer of 2009. The Indianapolis Star and The Arizona Republic, Gannett Co. newspapers, are seeking college students and new graduates with a talent for reporting, news design and graphics, or photojournalism for an exciting and demanding fellowship program.

What's in it for me?

You'll be a member of our newsroom, work hard and gain valuable journalism experience. You get paid, too. Our Pulliam Fellows earn $650/week for the 10-week program. You'll also get to participate in writing workshops and learn over lunch from some of the best minds in journalism.

Additionally, many former Pulliam Fellows have returned as guest lecturers, including Joseph Hallinan, former investigative reporter, Wall Street Journal, and winner of the 1991 Pulitzer Prize winner for reporting; and Jacqui Banaszynski, former assistant managing editor for metro and enterprise, The Seattle Times, and winner of the 1988 Pulitzer Prize for feature writing.

Am I qualified?

College juniors, seniors and graduate students enrolled in a related degree program as of Nov. 1, 2009, are eligible. Previous newspaper internships and/or experience on a college newspaper are preferred. You need to be committed to a career in news journalism. You must have reliable transportation and arrange for your own housing. We are an equal opportunity employer that values diversity.
