JOURNALISM
(JOUR)
The department's program is designed to balance a student's development in the theory and practice of journalism with an even stronger emphasis on the humanities, arts and sciences. The department offers instruction in the reporting, writing and editing skills necessary for a journalism career along with in-house internships for professional development. Courses are also required to provide students with an understanding of journalism's role in society. The department offers programs combining the major in journalism with that in Oriental studies or Latin American studies.
The Department of Journalism is accredited by the Accrediting Council on Education for Journalism and Mass Communications.
Students are strongly advised to minor or obtain a second major in economics, English writing or literature, history, political science, a modern language, anthropology, psychology, sociology or the natural sciences.
