DescriptionThe international AAAS Kavli Science Journalism
Awards honor professional journalists for distinguished reporting
on the sciences, engineering, and mathematics. Before award
submissions are reviewed by scientist experts and journalist
judges, our program withdraws entries that do not qualify for the
contest or compete at the program's standard. In 2023 we received
1,224 entries from 74 countries. We are seeking an intern to join
us for six to eight weeks to assist with reviewing the eligibility
of entries and other tasks. These includes soliciting entries from
specific journalists, answering general submission inquiries and
compiling a spreadsheet on the total number of entries and their
countries of origin. The awards intern will work closely with the
Senior Program Associate and Program Director.
