BA in Multimedia Journalism

Lights, camera, action

This isn't your ordinary journalism degree. In the multimedia journalism program, you’ll be challenged to maintain your morals in an ethical communications course—and you’ll dig deep to expose government corruption and consumer fraud in your investigative journalism course. Courses in social media, digital layout, video editing, and photojournalism will flesh out your portfolio. And by working with the iPulse, our award-winning student newspaper, and news website, you can add to your extensive experience with a portfolio full of clippings.

Professors are experienced professionals who have worked in bullpen environments ranging from local newsrooms to nationwide broadcasts, including ABC’s 20/20 and CBS’ 60 Minutes. With experience like that, we can promise that classes here aren’t just about studying theory—you’ll learn directly from experts in the field, hearing stories about real-world journalism.
