Interested in telling compelling stories – whatever the platform? Want a skill set that will get you a great job in a wide range of fields?
J&PR offers options in NEWS and PUBLIC RELATIONS, both of which focus on storytelling across multiple communication platforms, from traditional media, to social media, to visual media.
Tehama Group Communications – A student-managed, full-service public relations agency with on-site consultants offering communications research and planning for up to nine clients per semester.
The Orion – A student-run, award-winning news organization that features multi-platform daily breaking news online, a weekly print edition and social media coverage of the Chico State community.
J&PR students create portfolios that include projects from the numerous applied skills and visual storytelling classes offered in the department.
J&PR continues to build on its reputation as a professional skills-based program, with its students winning awards and being selected for competitive scholarships, internships and other honors each year.
Students are required to complete at least one faculty-supervised internship before graduation. These hands-on learning experiences provide leadership opportunities and prepare students for industry.
