Welcome to Radio and TV
The Radio/Television program, and its associated degree plan, Digital Media is an intensive hands-on degree plan. Students enrolled in the courses are assigned numerous out-of-class assignments designed to develop their skills in speaking, writing, and the operation of equipment. Depending upon the course, there are also in-class productions which require teamwork in order for a production to be successfully produced.
The courses are a blend of lecture and productions. The lecture material relates closely to the subject in explaining the theory behind assignments. Classes are held in a modern facility that features a classroom and studio combination. In addition, there are several smaller production rooms for audio and video exercises. The television production courses make use of three color cameras with a professional set for interviews and newscasts.
Several courses are shared with other disciplines depending upon the major. Radio/Television students take two Journalism courses as part of their major while Digital Media students take a combination of courses from Art, Computer Science, as well as Radio/Television. There is a natural synergy that takes place among students because of the sharing of courses with other Del Mar College majors.
