Program Information The NBC Universal Internship Program gives you real-world experience and lets you get familiar with NBCU's organization and work style. At NBCU, we work with colleges and universities to provide students the opportunity to apply coursework learned or taught in the classroom with practice in the workplace. Students are placed in a variety of areas in TV/Film such as production, programming, development, publicity, casting and print advertising. We also have interns in news and sports at our local affiliate- KNBC and at Focus Features/ Rogue Pictures, our specialty films unit. NBCU considers the use of interns as an important recruiting tool. The program allows NBCU to identify high potential talent for future employment.
