Richard Casement Internship Programme 2018 at The Economist

The Economist is an English-language weekly magazine-format newspaper owned by the Economist Group and edited at offices in London. Continuous publication began under its founder, James Wilson, in September 1843. In 2015 its average weekly circulation was a little over 1.5 million, about half of which were sold in the United States.

They invite applications for the 2018 Richard Casement internship. They are looking for a would-be journalist to spend three months of the summer working on the newspaper in London, writing about science and technology.  Applicants should write a letter introducing themselves and an article of about 600 words that they think would be suitable for publication in the Science and Technology section.  They should be prepared to come for an interview in London or New York.
