The Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism is now accepting applications for the 2014 Advanced Certificate Program. The program begins on January 21, 2014 and ends on May 23, 2014.
The Tow-Knight Entrepreneurial Journalism Program is a unique, 15-week intensive immersion into the entrepreneurial process. Each year we select a small group of outstanding individuals who spend the winter and spring with us developing their own entrepreneurial journalism projects (sites, apps, services, products, etc).Each participant earns an advanced certificate in Entrepreneurial Journalism — the first such certificate in the country– through a combination of coursework, practical training and building something new!
We welcome applicants with a passion for innovation and experience in journalism and/or related media, business or technology fields.
When is the application deadline?
Our application season begins June 21 and lasts through October 31. We review applications on a rolling basis.
