This concentration in communication teaches the bedrock skills of news reporting and writing and enables students to acquire the technical capacity to report and tell stories using audio, visual, and textual media on multiple platforms—online, broadcast, social media, and print.

Students will complement this expertise with in-depth study of media law, history, theory, criticism, and ethics. This course of study will prepare students for careers in the news media and also provide the background in critical thinking, problem solving, and clear writing necessary for success in a wide range of other careers or graduate programs.
