Students can gain hands-on experience working for the campus newspaper, The Echo, or for the campus-wide cable television station operating out of our new on-campus TV studio.

Communication education also takes students out of the classroom and into the workplace, with the requirement that they complete at least one industry internship or produce a special senior project.

While in the program, many students work or intern for a variety of organizations, including:

  • Television stations such as CNN, KNBC, CBS, Fox Television, KCAL and KADY
  • Shows such as Access Hollywood
  • Radio stations, including Cal Lutheran's own KCLU national public radio
  • Local and regional newspapers, including the Thousand Oaks Star and Los Angeles Times
  • Sports information departments for the L.A. Clippers and L.A. Kings
  • Marketing firms and departments, including those at J.D. Power & Associates, and Amgen
  • Software companies
  • Ticketmaster
  • Sports marketing firms
