The Department of Journalism & Public Relations at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) has been preparing students for careers in journalism, public relations and other storytelling-related fields for more than 50 years.
The department is home to about 600 students, nearly 40 full and part-time faculty members, award-winning student media, Long Beach Current, DIG Magazine, ENYE, Beach TV News, and the 2019 and 2021 national Bateman public relations case study competition champions. It also hosts active student chapters of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, Public Relations Student Society of America, National Association of Black Journalists, and Asian American Journalists Association.
Golden Globe Foundation funds are used for internship participation scholarships and programming designed to facilitate equitable access to career enhancing and potentially life-changing internship opportunities for first-generation, low-income students from diverse backgrounds.
