Many of the students participate in internships with both independent and big-budget film production companies, as well as with radio and television stations, video game and web design companies, and a variety of other media institutions.

Students graduating with a BS in RTF generally take courses that entail studying media as well as making media. Media industries are altering many opportunities and structures, and it is important that students understand how they were created, have operated as well as where they are moving today.
