Language of instruction:	English
Type of course:	Non-Departmental Elective
Course Level:	Bachelor’s Degree (First Cycle)
Mode of Delivery:	Face to face
Course Coordinator :	Prof. Dr. NİLAY ULUSOY
Course Lecturer(s):	Instructor ERHAN KONUK
Recommended Optional Program Components:	None
Course Objectives:	The main objective of the course is to give vision on the making of a radio programme through the introduction of the structure of a radio programme. Although this is not a course about the structure of the radio stations, the structure of the stations (the positions in a radio station, radio formats etc) will be examined in order to situate the topic in a wider context.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1. Will be able to define the concepts of radio prgramme and programmer.
2. Recognize the definitions of different positions in a radio station.
3. Recognize the differences between different positions and job titles.
4. Will be able to name different types of radio programmes.
5. Will be able to name different radio formats.
6. Recognize the corporate staff organization in both the state and the private radio stations.
7. Will be able to name reportage and interview types.
8. Make the montage of a radio programme.
9. Share the experiences of important radio programmers.
10. Will be able to understand the importance of advertisement, news, promotion and budget for a radio station.
