OMN is a place FOR ANY one WANTING TO LEARN

Whether you are aspiring to be a journalist, seeking a broadcasting career or just wanting to find a great job about graduation, we have you covered. You can take the skills you learn at OMN — critical thinking, problem solving, attention to detail, project management, leadership, grace under deadline pressure, interpersonal skills/teamwork, writing and communication, grit, curiosity, and more— and apply them to any career. Employers want graduates with these skills, and OMN students develop them through the process of creating national-award winning media.

Here at OMN, we help students of all majors and experiences develop marketable leadership and communication expertise while learning and practicing hands-on professional media skills. You provide the interest and enthusiasm, we’ll provide you with the technical skills, equipment, training, and mentors to turn your ideas into TV shows, podcasts, news articles, magazine stories, photo shoots, documentaries, marketing campaigns, and more.

OMN Bracketology

During March Madness, alumni, current students, and friends of OMN get together for a virtual reunion and compete with each other to see who's got the best bracket. Each week, we'll highlight one current student and one alumni who are making a difference with the skills they're learning at OSU.  This is an opportunity for OMN alumni to see the legacy they created in student media and for current students to connect with alumni.
