Curriculum
We offer a curriculum designed to equip our students with the powerful new tools of the digital age while teaching critical thinking, writing skills, and journalistic sensibility to make those tools worth using. Our courses provide students training in digital skills from the day they enter our school and help students to create a digital portfolio of their work that will serve as their resume, showcase their talent and ease their entry into the professional world after graduation. Our curriculum demolishes the outmoded walls between print, broadcast, photo, and multimedia while still allowing for specialization.
Minors
The minor in Journalism and Media affords undergraduate students across the university the opportunity to study a range of courses that will help prepare them for the digital communication economy.
