About the Los Angeles Program
Student interns integrate theory and practice in an atmosphere of "experiential learning" with the goals of self-knowledge, personal growth, and career development.
Interning with such industry professionals as set designers, film editors, writers, stage managers, film and television producers, casting directors, talent managers, and publicity directors provides students with an understanding of the industry beyond the classroom.
Courses are taught by Los Angeles Center faculty who, as well as being academically credentialed, are professionals working in the industry, including producers, directors, screenwriters, advertising and public relations executives, actors, entertainment marketing professionals, and more.
Completely furnished student housing (mandatory for undergraduates) is offered a short distance from the center at the Oakwood Apartment Complex near Universal Studios, Warner Brothers, and NBC.
For more information, students should contact the International Study and External Programs Office, 80 Boylston Street, 1st Floor, Room 121, by phone at 617-824-8567, or by email at la@emerson.edu.
