AEMM Graduate Internships

AEMM graduate students must complete a one semester internship (3 credit hours = 360 hours). Internship placement is most often with organizations in the Chicago area and includes both non-profit agencies and commercial enterprises. As a regular part of the course of study, the AEMM department places many students in internship programs with broadcast television stations, corporate television departments, cable stations, production, and post-production houses, and consulting firms. Every year, many students receive industry employment as a result of their internship.
