Electronic Media
The electronic media programs provide students with hands-on learning opportunities, utilizing current technology in the fields of broadcasting and multimedia production.
You will develop an understanding of the specialized visual literacy, aesthetic components and creation process of broadcast and multimedia productions. You will gain the ability to—both independently and as part of a team—take multimedia assets from visualization, planning, pre-production and production stages to the final product.
Our program provides students with a strong educational foundation with information and experience necessary for entry level positions in broadcast, multimedia production, communications and information industries.
You’ll learn in a newly designed space with the latest technology. A $2.8 million renovation completed in 2022 included a computer lab, classrooms, radio studios, equipment storage, student work spaces and a commons area used by journalism and electronic media students, as well as Delta’s Public Media PBS and NPR stations.

Choose a track
Section titled “Choose a track”Delta College offers students an opportunity to earn an Associate of Applied Arts in electronic media in one of two exciting tracks.
Broadcasting
Section titled “Broadcasting”The broadcasting track teaches you the history of radio and television and introduces you to the technical skills of audio/visual production and editing. You’ll dive into nonlinear editing using Adobe Premiere. You’ll also work with classmates as reporters, writers, videographers and editors on various student productions.
Digital film
Section titled “Digital film”The digital film track is largely designed for those who would like to be independent filmmakers. It’s also suited for those who intend to continue course work in film after their time at Delta College. If filmmaking is anything, it is a collaborative art form. It’s difficult to make films without a network of talented and passionate people to rely on. This program is a great way for students to grow their networks.
