1st Financial Bank USA wants to celebrate those who recognize the importance of pursuing educational and financial goals with the 1st Financial Bank USA Financial Goals Scholarship.
If you have a curious spirit, an appetite for investigative journalism and love numbers, data journalism is for you. Students may spend next summer asking tough questions, digging into government records and building interactive data visualizations that reveal untold stories through the Dow Jones News Fund Data Journalism Internship Program. Interns attend a week of training refining skills like making Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, learning computer-assisted reporting and analyzing and cleaning data in order to tell rich, often hidden, stories before starting internships where they apply these skills to issues like education, health care, government, criminal justice and the economy. Students who are enrolled in school as of the application deadline are eligible to apply for the college internship programs. This includes December graduates. U.S. students studying abroad and international students already in the U.S. with work visas are also eligible. Former professionals (those who have worked full-time on staff as a journalist for a year or more) in the U.S. or abroad are not eligible. Applicants must submit samples of their work. They must attach 3-5 clips of stories they wrote or links to digital content they produced. For data journalism, applicants may attach code they have written or a data visualization they created; editors can provide headlines, page designs or social media posts. Please visit the award's website for more information.
