About the ASME Internship Program
The ASME Internship Program was established by ASME in 1967 “to attract young people of talent to magazine editorial work.” Since it began, the program has placed more than 2,000 rising college seniors at nearly 250 magazines and websites in New York and Washington. More than 500 former ASME interns have gone on to successful careers in journalism, becoming editorial leaders at Conde Nast, Hearst Magazines, Dotdash Meredith and Vox Media as well as writers and reporters at major newspapers and television networks. The ASME Internship Program runs every year from late May to early August.
