ETSU Students receive hands-on experience by working in the division’s student operated radio and television stations, laboratories, and through approved internships.To complete the B.A. in Mass Communication with a concentration in Radio-TV-Film, a student must complete a total of 120 credit hours of course work. In addition to the University’s General Education requirements and the B.A. degree requirements, students must complete 39 hours in Radio-TV-Film. At least 72 hours of a student’s degree must be completed in non-mass communication courses (i.e., courses that do not begin with MCOM, ADVR, JOUR, PUBR or RTVF). Students must also complete a minor in a department of their choosing. A 2.0 grade point average must be obtained in the major, the minor, overall, and in all courses taken at ETSU in order to graduate.
