Practicum credits in The Fitzwater Center or Ravens Sports Network allow students to apply what they learn in the classroom in real-world settings.

Students from across campus can enroll in a practicum credit to work with PoliticsFitzU to cover the Iowa Caucuses, the N.H. Primary, the national political conventions, the November vote, and the Presidential Inauguration as credential media.

 

Other practicum opportunities that help a student鈥檚 resume stand out can be found on the Fitzwater Center鈥檚 award-winning production teams, which keep the studio lights on and the mics hot year-round. In the Patterson Television Suite, students work in master control with the Fitzwater Center staff as they record and edit New Hampshire Public Broadcasting鈥檚 鈥淭he State We鈥檙e In,鈥� a weekly public affairs show that hit its 200th episode in 2024. Students can also join the production crew for regular podcasts, including: 鈥�$100 Plus Mileage,鈥� with Citizens Count, and 鈥淭he Legal Impact,鈥� with Laura Knoy of the Franklin 国产黑料 Law Center at UNH.

Students can also be part of the regular news show on FPTV; host talk radio or music shows on WFPC-LP 105.3 FM, the area鈥檚 arts and culture station; or write for The 国产黑料 Arrow, the campus print newspaper.
