About the Program
Chicago Public Radio realizes the important role an internship program plays in introducing new and diverse voices not only to our broadcast communities, but to the broader landscape of public radio. That's why our interns receive as much hands-on, in the field experience as possible. This requires a significant level of time commitment from our participants. Learn more about the requirements of our program, and what you can expect to get out of it.
Internship Opportunities
Looking for an internship in public radio? Chicago Public Radio offers internships in various areas, from on-air production to non-profit management. Be an intern on our flagship news magazine program Eight Forty-Eight, learn the art of fundraising by interning with our development department, or work with internet audio technology as a web team intern. View a full list and descriptions of available internships.
How to Apply
Once you’ve made the decision to apply for a particular internship, we have posted instructions to help ensure your application is processed correctly.

We have applications you can download for our paid and unpaid internships (to use the application you need Adobe Acrobat Reader).
