In
the journalism and media studies major, students learn to write and
report by covering the metropolitan region around them--from Newark and
North Jersey to New York City. Journalism is taught as part of a
liberal arts education that blends theory and practice. Courses explore
writing, reporting, the history of journalism, contemporary media
issues, television, radio, the web, and journalism ethics and
photography. Some classes may require a laboratory fee.
An
internship is required for both the major and minor. Students majoring
in journalism and media studies work for print and broadcast news
organizations. Others have gone on to graduate school and law school.
