Are you a natural storyteller who enjoys engaging with an audience? Do you want to be involved in one of the world’s most impactful photojournalism exhibitions right here on campus? We’re looking for student tour guides for the World Press Photo Exhibition 2025 at TU/e!
From 2 to 24 September 2025, we will be hosting the exhibition in the Atlas building. This year’s edition showcases the winning images from the 68th annual World Press Photo Contest — selected from over 59,000 submissions by photographers from 141 countries. These photos offer powerful perspectives on key global issues, capturing moments that are shocking, moving, and thought-provoking.
We’ll be offering free guided tours throughout the exhibition period, and we are looking for enthusiastic student guides to help visitors engage more deeply with the stories behind the photos.
We’re looking for (BA/MA) students who:
- Are passionate about photography and storytelling;
- Feel confident speaking in front of small groups;
- Are available to give approximately five tours between 2 and 24 September;
- Are fluent in English (Dutch is a plus, but not required);
- Can attend a training session on giving guided tours on September 2nd (in the evening);
- Can independently prepare their tours using provided materials and a training tour by a World Press Photo expert.
Student guides will be paid for the hours spent giving tours, plus a total of two hours of preparation time.
Interested? Send an email to Liza (l.s.gloudemans@tue.nl) before May 20th. Tell us a bit about yourself and why you’d like to become a student tour guide for the World Press Photo Exhibition 2025.
