In the Department of Information Networking and Telecommunications we believe that learning is a life-long process and that once you have become part of the program that you always will be part of us. This is as true for people who graduated from the Communication Department with a Radio/Television Emphasis (or other Communication emphasis and Radio/Television classes or involvement with departmental clubs) as it is for recent graduates from the INT Department.

Over time, INT expects to offer an increasing number of courses and training sessions via the Internet. Alumni who desire to update or add skills will have the opportunity to do this from anywhere on the planet! If you have particular interests or needs. Let us know.

The Web, newsletters, Homecoming, and special events allow us to maintain contact with alumni. The FHSU Alumni Association is our partner in this effort.  Please take a moment to fill out the  What's New With You? page. This information will allow us to assure you are on mailing lists and that your ties with the INT Department are maintained.
