Student Media
Journalism students can prepare for the future by working in related jobs on campus. The Student Media Department offers volunteer and paid positions through The Rocky Mountain Collegian, Campus Television (CTV), KCSU-FM, Collegian.com and College Avenue magazine. Students can also gain experience through opportunities with the Associated Students of CSU public relations department, the University’s media relations department or with the Sports Information office. Student Media is located on the lower level of the Lory Student Center.
Student Organizations
Students interested in public relations and marketing communication may join the active Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA). The group runs its own public relations agency and works closely with the Denver Professional chapter of the Public Relations Society of America in bringing top professional speakers to campus.
Those interested in broadcast and print journalism may join the CSU chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ). The organization regularly brings professional journalists to campus and also organizes social events. A weekend workshop covering a current journalism topic is presented each spring.
Internships
Advanced students may undergo supervised, practical training in conjunction with academic assignments at professional communications organizations such as newspapers, television or radio stations, magazines, public relations and advertising firms, or corporate communications offices.
