Journalism

Student ResourcesStudent Resources: Students in the Division of Journalism are encouraged to work for the media resources on campus. The Daily Campus is the independent student newspaper. SMU-TV and KPNI radio are operated by the Division of Journalism, as is the convergence Web site smu.edu/dailydata/campusnews.html. Additionally, internships for all media disciplines are widely available in the extensive media market in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Students also have opportunities for obtaining credit hours in the SMU-in-London program each summer. Students are encouraged to take advantage of London's stature as an international center for media, current affairs and social and cultural events. SMU also has a cooperative program with American University in Washington, D.C. that allows students to obtain credit hours for classes in journalism or other disciplines. Special classes are also organized on a frequent basis in response to major news events, such as political conventions. Internship credit is available for work done in conjunction with media organizations as a part of these special classes.
