Overview

Key Features

Students in New York University’s Business and Economic Reporting program learn to follow the money and in the process, cultivate the skills needed to cover impactful stories about power, innovation, disruption and inequality in their communities and the global economy.

Over three semesters, our students not only gain intensive journalism training from professors with broad experience covering business, they also build subject-matter expertise in accounting, economics and corporate finance through courses at NYU’s Stern School of Business.

The program’s small size, with an average of 12 students per year, ensures students receive plentiful feedback and attention from their professors. In addition to their courses, the class meets weekly with editors from the most prestigious news organizations, and students are individually paired with mentors from leading news outlets. In the summer, they gain additional hands-on reporting experience during full-time internships in New York City — an undisputed capital of media. Every year, we also travel (all expenses paid) to London for a week-long seminar studying the U.K. and European Union economies.

Careers

Graduates have gone on to jobs at leading news outlets including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Bloomberg, Reuters, the Financial Times, CNN, CNBC and many more.
