The Internships are for 180 hours and are reimbursed in the form of wages at $6.40/per hour. WDST’s Internship Program offers college students seeking a career in broadcasting a unique opportunity for on-the-job training in their particular area of interest. Our internship programs have proven beneficial in providing workplace opportunities to enrich their school studies and by helping students gain valuable work experience. WDST’s internship program provides opportunities for a successful partnership between education and business by bridging the working world and the classroom.
Our programs are designed to provide a broad introductory overview of the broadcasting industry and help students learn through workplace experience, and more importantly, students have an opportunity to exchange their visions, bringing their skills and cutting-edge ideas to the WDST environment.
WDST interns may be accepted into, and are encouraged to participate in, a variety of areas and departments within WDST, including:
Promotions | Sales/Marketing | Broadcasting | |
Production | Accounting | Webcasting | |
Traffic |
The Internships are awarded to qualified candidates who meet the following criteria:
