The School of Journalism offers a dynamic Master of Arts degree that seeks to prepare students for the challenges faced by media organizations in the digital age. The degree trains students to become rigorous, ethical, and creative news reporters, editors, and content producers, as well as social media managers and video/audio specialists.
Both students new to the field and those with some experience can choose courses tailored to help them thrive in particular subject areas, such as criminal justice or climate change, or around specific technologies, such as podcasting or data visualization. Our programs are designed to merge the skills of professional journalism with knowledge of the latest information technologies.
