Evergreen Multimedia Arts Internship Program (F,W,S)

(updated on 05/9/2023)

The Evergreen Multimedia Arts Internship Program (EMAIP) houses a series of in-program internships. This coming academic year 2023-24, the program is expanding its learning opportunities to photography with 2 openings. There will be 3 openings in electronic media (audio, video, and production). 

Students selected for this program will receive a scholarship covering the total cost of their annual tuition (and lab fees) which will be allocated quarterly along with gear packages that include industry standard equipment for use over the duration of the internship. 

All internships are advanced media programs that encourage self-starting and inspired students to pursue their goals and passions through hands-on work in a highly collaborative and professional multimedia environment. Under the guidance of staff supervisors, the program coordinator, the media director and the faculty sponsor, interns develop the necessary skills to thrive in a post-college environment, including creative collaboration, effective communication, emotionally intelligent leadership, and an interdisciplinary approach to multimedia. 

EMAIP requires a year-long commitment from Fall through Spring quarters. Students can expect learning and work to follow a hybrid model with some remote/online activities and significant in-person activities as conditions permit.
