ENGL 7880X: Publishing Internship
Work in a publishing company or literary agency in one of the following capacities: editorial, sales, marketing, publicity, legal, or literary agent.
This course supports the English Department's goal to prepare students for real-world application of their training in language, linguistics, and written communication. Serving a student body that is culturally and linguistically diverse, this course affirms the department's goal to foster authentic learning and global awareness. This course supports the mission of the college by advancing its commitment to "capitalize on Brooklyn as a learning environment and a gateway to the world" (2015 Strategic Plan).
Internships provide students an opportunity to learn valuable skills, make professional contacts, and gain real-world work experience. Because publishing is composed of many subfields on the editorial and business sides of the industry, students may take this course twice toward the degree requirements.
