A Guide to Taking Gap Year Journalism Abroad
Popular Locations
It’s a fast-paced world out there filled with a lot of news to cover. So, narrowing down where you’d like to hone your journalism experience can be totally overwhelming. You’ll want to choose a gap year program that offers the journalism experience you’re looking to gain in a location that gets you amped. Let’s jump into some of the top gap year journalism program destinations.
South Africa. Why not nurture your inner news junkie in the tech hub of Africa? If you’re a politics lover, there are media internships abroad where you’ll get to cover South African Parliament sessions in Cape Town. Spend your days shadowing top South African journalists or at a leading African travel mag in one of the many exciting travel journalism internships. Journalism abroad programs in South Africa offer journalism experience in everything from copywriting, radio, broadcast news, photojournalism, and more.
China. Looking to get immersed in the Asian press scene? Go for a gap year journalism abroad program in China! You can brush up your news production skills at a state-run English media house in Beijing and network your way through the Chinese press corps (and study Mandarin while you’re at it!). And don’t be deterred by the government imposed restrictions that exist on Chinese media. Journalism jobs overseas in China will sharpen your newsgathering skills under the umbrella of the world’s emerging global leader—you can’t wrong with journalism opportunities abroad in China.
England. Are you hooked on all things international media? Quench your thirst for world news with a journalism abroad gap year in England. You’ll be surrounded by first-rate journalists based at U.K. newsrooms like CNN International, BBC, and Al Jazeera. While international journalism internships in England are highly competitive, top notch media opportunities exist in everything from TV news, film production, radio, and print.
