Stony Brook University SUNY Korea

Seven SUNY Korea students (SBU and FIT) successfully finished an internship program with the Korea JoongAng Daily Newspaper from January 10 to 18.

​

This program was organized by the SUNY Korea Career Development Center (CDC) in collaboration with Korea JoongAng Daily in order to provide students a chance to explore careers in journalism, media and marketing. Korea JoongAng Daily Newspaper is the only global, local English newspaper in Korea that issues articles from both JoongAng Ilbo and International New York Times.

​

On January 18, 7 students presented their outcomes and learning points from the internship. This presentation was held at SUNY Korea and the Korea JoongAng Daily CEO, Mr. Chun-gun Cheong, and the SUNY Korea President, Dr. Arthur Lee, were in attendance. After the presentation, the internship completion certificates were delivered to students. Students’ articles will be published on the Korea JoongAng Daily website.

​

One student expressed that through the internship, she gained a lot of things such as patience and good communication skills. SUNY Korea and Korea JoongAng Daily will continue to collaborate to provide valuable opportunities to students.
