Student Media Opportunities 2025

 Student Media's mission is empowering students to exercise their First Amendment rights and creativity through the creation of works that inform, enrich, and entertain the Mason community. Writer, editor, videographer, anchor, DJ, designer, peer reviewer, director, and producer are just a few of the roles students can explore when they get involved.

With 10+ unique publications and media groups to choose from, we offer a wide variety of opportunities to apply academic concepts beyond the classroom and build practical skills that can open up new career pathways. We meet students where they are and offer hands-on training to help them find success. But don't take our word for it...

Here is a video featuring our diverse students sharing their own first-hand experiences:

We also offer several 1-credit co-curricular courses through the Communication Department that might be a good fit (all majors welcome):

COMM 145: Newspaper Workshop
COMM 148: Radio Workshop I
COMM 348: Radio Workshop II
COMM 347: Cable TV Programming & Marketing


Each of these courses can be repeated up to three times each!
