We have a talented faculty with professional and academic experience.
Classes are small and professors are always willing to meet and work individually with students.
The underlying theme of the program is critical thinking. Not only do students develop rigorous journalism skills and research experience, they are challenged to think critically about the role of mass media in society and the changes impelled by new media technologies. The flexible program encourages students to pursue individual interests while still acquiring a solid foundation in analytical skills. Beyond this core curriculum, students work with their faculty advisers to individualize a program of study, taking additional courses in the School of Journalism as well as in other departments on campus. For example, students have chosen to develop expertise in business, environmental issues, or sports to accompany their journalism expertise.
