MIT Technology Review seeks pitches from freelance writers

MIT Technology Review is accepting pitches from freelance writers of all skill levels and from all backgrounds.

Priority will be given to writers with backgrounds that are traditionally underrepresented in technology and science journalism, and from outside the United States.

MIT Technology Review publishes a wide range of stories, from breaking news to long-term investigations. Stories can focus on those areas where technology and humans collide, where technology meets the real world.

Writers receive $1 to $2 per word, depending on the experience level, the story and the publication route.
