internXchange provides outstanding young journalism and communications students from North America with an opportunity to immerse themselves in the society, culture, values, and political attitudes in Germany.

Application deadline: February 24, 2013

The internXchange program consists of two complementary segments. The first six weeks will be spent at the International Center for Journalism of the Freie Universität Berlin, where participants will expand their academic understanding of the politics, society and culture of Germany and the country's current media structure and working conditions of journalists.

With these theoretical building blocks in place, participants subsequently embark on an intensive five-week internship with a German newspaper, (online) magazine, TV or radio station, press or PR agency. During the academic part of the program students will take a one-week educational tour within Germany, along with young journalists from the Independent States of the former Soviet Union. 

A monthly stipend is available. For more information, please visit www.daad.org/internxchange.
