Lights. Camera. ACTION!
Our lives are saturated with media: computers, the Internet, cell phones, apps, social media, and more. However, just because media is now immediate and easily accessible doesn’t mean it’s handled effectively.
Why Study Media & Journalism?
Learn media literacy and practical skills to connect with digital audiences and create — not just entertaining — valuable content. Learn to adapt to an ever-changing and evolving media environment, one that’s now driven by breaking news and social media influencers. Develop the communication, marketing, and journalistic skills necessary to effectively use media to reach desired audiences, whether in your personal life or your future profession.
Courses and Curriculum
Studies include online journalism, editing, feature writing, magazine editing and production, public affairs reporting, and broadcast journalism.
Studies include public relations theory and practice, publicity and public relations, PR cases and problems, as well as options in video production, feature writing, online journalism, introduction to business, economics, marketing principles and practices and advertising management. As a capstone, students participate in a mass communications seminar, practicum or internship.
Studies in emergent media develop the skills employers are looking for in web design, visual communication, social media, and other new media technologies.
