Our students intern at national sports media companies and with major sports teams.  We also encourage our students to take advantage of the many opportunities for educational and professional experiences in local and regional sports: (1) Wake is NCAA Division I with a full complement of women and men’s sports. (2) Winston is headquarters for Learfield/IMG and a minor league baseball team. (3) Nearby Charlotte is home to major television affiliates with sports units as well as home to the pro teams Charlotte Hornets and Panthers.

Day in and day out I learned from some of the best sports storytellers in the largest media market in the country. I know I’ll be a better filmmaker because of this experience.
