The program is a two-week intensive designed for both U.S. and international high school students who are interested in learning and honing writing, journalism, and investigative reporting skills. The students get hands-on education and insight from our award-winning faculty, spend the summer learning new and valuable journalism skills, and explore the city of Boston while staying on Boston University's campus. We are currently accepting applications for our three 2015 workshop sessions!
