Radio & Television

The RSU Edge: Television and Radio Stations are your entry into the exciting world of broadcast media. Many of our graduates are employed by area television and radio stations in a variety of roles. Your preparation will include courses in news reporting, audio and video production, and media law.

In addition to actual participation with RSU Public Television (KRSC-TV) and RSU Radio (KRSC-91.3 FM), students are provided a diverse curriculum of course instruction. Students learn not only the theory, but also the practice of electronic media production.

RSU is the only university in Oklahoma to provide communications students with “real life” experience at public television and radio stations located on campus and broadcasting across the region.

RSU Radio

RSU Radio is a 3,000-watt student and volunteer-operated radio station on the RSU campus. No other university in the state provides the same level of extensive “hands on” experience to students by providing them with state-of-the-art audio and computer equipment to enhance their announcing and interviewing skills.
