EBF Programs and Events

Emma Week


Each year, EBF students gather at the EBF Annual Summer Conference to network, learn, and take their first steps toward a career in the media and technology industries.

Emma Week features talks by charismatic leaders in the industry and conversations with EBF Alumni, as well as a few flagship events, including our Power Networking event and Career Fair with some of the industry’s leading employers.

EBF Fellow Program


The Emma Bowen Fellows Program provides multi-year internships to students of color at media companies across the country. Each student works as a paid summer intern for each summer following their selection as an Emma Bowen Foundation Fellow through their college graduation, gaining significant on-the-job training in their field and making connections with colleagues and mentors that last a lifetime. Our fellows graduate with invaluable work experience and a head-start in whichever career they choose.

We work to educate and place our students in all areas of the industry, and focus on three programming tracks - the Business (Sales, Public Relations, Marketing, Human Resources, etc.), Content  (News Production, Broadcast Journalism, and Print Journalism), and Innovation (Engineering, Software Development, Digital Marketing, Coding, etc.).
