Our award-winning broadcasting program is designed to create a professional training environment for students moving into the television, media, and communications technology sector. Students learn how technology works through immersive, real-world experiences and internships beginning in their first year — an opportunity that is typically reserved for your junior or senior year at larger colleges and universities.
In addition to the major, we offer a minor and many elective courses so that you can choose the focus that best aligns with your career goals. Our major or minor will equip you with the skills and techniques needed to work in a variety of careers in the broadcasting industry, such as radio talk show host, sports broadcaster, public relations professional, news and journalism professional, audio engineer, producer, and more. Adding a broadcasting minor to any major at Goshen College can also help you graduate with a diversity of communication skills that can help set you apart among prospective employers.
As just one example, at GC, you can go behind the microphone and host your own radio broadcasting show to a national audience on our campus radio station, 91.1 FM The Globe, which has been named Best College Station in the Nation by the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System (IBS).

And if you’re interested in film, entertainment, broadcast media, or audio production, you can work for FiveCore Media, our full-service professional video production company. Some courses will even take you to places like Greece and Kenya, in addition to exciting local sites off campus.
In addition to being nationally recognized for excellence among top schools and communication programs, our radio and television broadcasting experience is designed in close collaboration with broadcasting professionals. This means that our students have access to the latest trends and technologies in visual communications and electronic media, and our graduates go on from GC with a resume that will stand out in a competitive job market.
