The Bloomberg-UNC-Berkeley Business Journalism Diversity Program
The Bloomberg-UNC-Berkeley Business Journalism Diversity Program welcomes students who are interested in learning about business journalism. During this 5-day virtual program from May 17-21, 2021, you’ll explore how journalists report effectively on the economy, companies, financial and commodity markets, government, and labor where wealth and power converge.
Open to university rising juniors and seniors who have a strong interest in pursuing a career in journalism and who are not currently studying business journalism.
Note: Full-time international students studying in the U.S. are welcome to apply, but permission from their institution is required in order to issue stipends that may help with connectivity for a virtual program.
