Media Studies and Production (MSP) Student Awards

Organized by Professor Matt Fine and hosted by the Department of Media Studies and Production in Temple University’s Klein College of Media and Communication, these Annual Awards celebrate the creative and research achievements of our students. The event showcases student work produced in courses, independent projects, and extracurricular initiatives throughout the academic year. Winners are selected by a panel of faculty.

In addition, this is the event where we award student scholarships each year. Attendees will be eligible for raffle prizes as well.

This year’s 20th Annual Awards Ceremony will be held on April 28th, 12pm in Annenberg Hall TUTV Studio 1 and will be hosted by sports anchor and reporter (and Temple Alum!) Lindsey Moppert!
