Spiegel Scholars Program

The Spiegel Scholars Program offers Medill students a unique opportunity to work alongside leading researchers at the Medill Spiegel Research Center, where we use data-driven research to uncover how customer engagement impacts business performance. Scholars support projects on journalism, media, and marketing communications, contributing to both the research process and the development of compelling, professional-facing content. Whether you’re skilled in data analysis, storytelling, content strategy, or design, this program provides opportunities for our scholars to use their talents in a real-world context to help position Spiegel as a thought leader in the industry.
