TCU Press has traditionally published the history, culture, and literature of Texas and the American West. As the press has grown steadily in stature and in its ability to bring credit to its parent university over the last sixty years, it has been praised for publishing regional fiction, for discovering and preserving local history, and for contributing to meaningful discussions of social issues, such as race, class, and gender.

Our internship program gives students the opportunity to gain hands-on publishing experience while contributing to real projects that make an impact on readers and the community.
