School of Journalism

Courses in the School of Journalism examine the news media -- emphasizing their history, privileges and ethical responsibilities -- and provide instruction in skills required for a wide array of careers that require gathering, verifying, and disseminating news and information in the digital age. The School of Journalism offers a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and a minor in Journalism.

Students select courses in writing, reporting, producing, directing, editing, and still and video photography. They train to work across multiple platforms including online, audio, video, newspaper, and magazine.

A quality education in journalism is built on a strong liberal arts foundation. Students must complete 72 credits outside of journalism, including the University's general education requirements.
