Scripps Howard Intern - KOSU

Oklahoma City, OK

KOSU is looking for an aspiring journalist to join the station as a Scripps Howard intern.

The intern will work with our news team on daily news and long-term projects, learning to write and record news reports for radio and produce digitally focused reports. The Scripps Howard Fund internship program is available to college students or recent graduates and aims to provide students from diverse backgrounds with a high-quality, hands-on experience.

The 10-week program pays $15 an hour and will be based at KOSU’s newsroom in Oklahoma City during summer 2026.

KOSU wants interns prepared to work in a public radio newsroom the day they complete their fellowship program. We will train them in what they’re interested in, but especially in helping file spot stories for newscasts and feature stories to be aired during news magazine broadcasts.

Thanks to support from the Scripps Howard Fund, the internship will feature weekly training sessions with fellow interns from across the country. The Institute for Nonprofit News also supports the program.
