Special Features
Whether your focus is on acting, corporate communication, or treating language disorders, you'll need to practice what you're learning—while you're learning. At Elmhurst, you'll find plenty of opportunities for hands-on experience: on stage, at an internship, or in the clinic. For example:
- Our campus radio station provides on-air opportunities as well as production experience. WRSE-FM is a 320-watt station with a sophisticated array of equipment.
- At our very own speech-language-hearing clinic, you'll get hands-on experience with real patients. More...
- Elmhurst's own Mill Theatre provides on-campus opportunities to act, work on sets and lights, and even design and direct plays. As a theatre major at Elmhurst, you can get involved in Mill Theatre productions as early as freshman year. More...
- World-class internships are available in the immediate area and in downtown Chicago, just 16 miles away. More...
- Departmental practica provide practical experience and insight into radio, theatre, or speech therapy.
- National organizations, such as the National Student Speech-Language-Hearing Association and Theta Alpha Phi National Theatre Honorary, and Lambda Pi Eta, give you a look at the professional world.
