Intercultural Outreach offers editing and publication internships to provide BYU students an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the editing publication process of CultureGuides, complete country-specific lessons that contain information, resources, and media for classroom presentations.

Intercultural Outreach seeks upper division editing students who have a love for and interest in cultural understanding. Interns will gain experience using QuarkXPress and Photoshop and will improve their editing skills as they learn about the editing process and receive feedback from a professional editor. The editing process for CultureGuides includes content revision and adaptation, copy editing, layout, and preparation of visuals and other media.

Interns are required to work ten to fifteen hours a week during a semester (fall, winter, or spring/summer). Work schedules are relatively flexible and may be adapted for individual circumstances. Interns will receive either academic internship credit or a $550 stipend.
