Hands-On Learning, Real-World Experience
The hallmark of the SOJC experience is the professional practice students get in the field. From reporting trips around the globe, to internships with multinational media companies, to navigating the complexities of client work in student-run agencies, these real-life experiences will tip the scales in your favor when it's time to find a job.
In Allen Hall on the Eugene campus, the Experience Hub has everything you need to become a powerful content creator, including our cutting-edge immersive media lab, professional-quality podcast studio, social media analytics lab, a broadcast/photography studio and editing bays, and plenty of flexible spaces for creative collaboration.
The next media frontier is the immersive metasphere, from 360 video to virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and extended reality (XR). We’re pioneering media-making and research, and exploring the ethics of these emerging technologies at the Oregon Reality (OR) Lab, our state-of-the-art immersive experience space at SOJC Portland.
