In the journalism major, students learn to
write and report by covering the people, issues, and politics of the metropolitan
region around them. Journalism is taught as part of a liberal arts education
that blends theory and practice. Courses explore writing, reporting, ethics,
the history of journalism, contemporary media issues, and multimedia. Some
classes require a laboratory fee. An internship is required for the major.
The major in journalism is offered through
the Department of Arts, Culture, and Media (ACM). ACM houses programs and/or
majors in art, art history, graphic design, journalism, music, theater, and video production. Each major includes an
ACM core sequence requirement. Taking advantage of the range of disciplines in
ACM and the campus mission to engage with its community, the core combines an
integrated sequence of classes, shaped in large part by projects drawn from the
urban region surrounding the university. The sequence consists of three
classes: Introduction to Arts, Media, and Culture, a class designated by each
program that combines interdisciplinary pedagogy with a student's major, and
either Colloquium in Arts, Culture, and Media or Seminar in Arts, Culture, and Media.
