Internships

Participating in internships provides an excellent opportunity to gain real-world experience in various media sectors, including filmmaking, television, radio, advertising, marketing, public relations, digital media, journalism, and more. These internships serve as a valuable means to explore and identify specific areas of interest within the media field. Through media internships, you not only acquire knowledge about the operations and societal impact of the film and media industries, but also develop technical expertise and business savvy. In many cases, students have successfully transitioned their internships into full-time employment following graduation.
