A successful career in journalism is something many dream of. An internship offers young journalists the chance to get to know the journalistic day-to-day business and gather valuable practical experience.
In principle, internships with Deutsche Welle are possible in all departments in which journalistic work is carried out: DW-RADIO, DW-TV, DW-WORLD.DE, DW-AKADEMIE and the communications department.
The placement generally last one to two months and begins on the first working day of a month.
Deutsche Welle places great emphasis on involving the trainee as much as possible in an editorial department’s day-to-day work. The more practical experience the trainee already has, the better his or her chances of being allowed to carry out journalistic or editorial tasks.
Applicants for an internship at Deutsche Welle must fulfill certain requirements – then the selection process begins with a formal application.
Eligibility
Eligible candidates must:
- be at the earliest after the third semester of studies
- have some experience of journalism in radio, TV, or multimedia

- Cover letter stating the desired time frame, preferred editorial department and chosen specialized area (at DW-TV: news, business, sport, current affairs magazine or culture)
- Curriculum vitae with photograph
- Certificate of matriculation
- Details of previous practical experience
- Written, published samples of your work (max. 3-5) — no electronic media
- Proof of foreign language abilities, if a placement in a foreign language department is desired (at DW-TV: if your native language is Arabic, English or Spanish, you may also apply for a placement in the respective department.)

Hello Maya,
Please note that Mladiinfo does not give scholarships or any financial support, but only informs about different opportunities. Click on the direct link to the official page above to apply for the program.
My guess is that you cant apply, as "if your native language is Arabic, English or Spanish, you may also apply for a placement in the respective department."
But to prove it right or wrong, please write to fabian.von-der-mark[at]dw-world.de
All the best,
