National Public Radio Internship 2025 (USA)

NPR is excited to announce that they are reinstating their internship program for the Fall 2025 season!

The NPR internship program has for many years served as a learning opportunity for those wishing to enter public media. Their past interns have played a vital role in NPR's daily operations in almost every part of the organization, contributing and learning alongside our experienced newsroom and other colleagues.

They are looking forward to welcoming their next cohort of interns!

Come join them on their mission to create a more informed public and help NPR do the kind of journalism that embraces the rich diversity of the country — whether it's researching NPR's sources for our newsroom, assisting with audio production, editing web pages, conducting research for shows, pitching ideas, engaging with their social media channels, designing and developing embedded graphics for their digital platforms, or coding survey data.

The point is that there is a place for you. Every department at NPR contributes to their stories and they want you to bring your unique perspective and skill sets as you learn and grow as an NPR intern.

Locations and Hours: NPR's Internship Program is offered onsite, fully remote, or a hybrid of the two as determined by each individual team's structure. See specific internship postings for more details.

Internships are typically full-time at 40 hours per week, but there is flexibility on a role to role basis. Any positions that are part-time will be indicated on the job posting.

Many Member stations offer internships of their own: check your local station's website for details.
