Multimedia Studies: Journalism
The Journalism sequence prepares students to work in the new media convergence environment, where competition, deregulation, and digital technology break down the barriers among print, radio, television, and the Internet.
Students develop strong writing and analytical skills and become adept at reporting and producing across multiple media platforms, gaining the versatility required in a rapidly evolving media market.
The program combines a broad liberal arts education with professional training, preparing graduates to fulfill the responsibilities of journalists and contribute to the effective functioning of democratic institutions. Students also complete an emphasis in another discipline, strengthening their ability to inform and engage audiences in a global, technology-driven society.
