How do I get an internship?
The Department of Media Study has a number of partnerships with local companies, galleries, organizations, broadcasting stations, etc., and students can request a list of these organizations from the department. In addition, the Department of Media Study is developing a number of summer and semester-long internship possibilities with media studios and corporations in Los Angeles, New York City and other media centers. We encourage students to explore their own internship opportunities (at production studios, local TV studios, and media access centers, for example). Students have recently interned with the David Letterman show, MTV, Tricoast Studios, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, the Black Entertainment Network (BET), Human Code, Fireant Design, WBEN radio in Buffalo, and the Buffalo Pan Am Exposition project.
