The Scripps Semester in D.C. Programgives Ohio University students the chance to live, learn, and intern in our nation’s capital. With 100% internship placement, professional mentorship,and a full course load, students gain real-world experience that sets them apart—before graduation.
The program gives students the opportunity to learn from industry professionals working in the nation's capital, focusing on journalism (print, broadcast, data and photojournalism), strategic communication, commercial photography, information graphics, data visualization, publication design for print and digital, and scripting a UX design.
The cost of living in Washington, D.C. can make this transformational opportunity out of reach for some Bobcats.
