RTVF facilitates the recruitment, placement, and evaluation of RTVF (broadcasting) majors in competitive internships with various industries so that students may apply knowledge gained in classes, develop their skills, network with industry professionals, strengthen their resumes, and have access to job opportunities.
Students may earn credit for their internship (3 credits, RTVF 4080. CRN 14435) and will be evaluated on their successful completion of the required number of hours, a written assignment, and the completion of an individual project that supplements their portfolio.
