Journalism, Public Relations & New Media

JPR&NM prepares students with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in an industry in which content creation for various platforms is the key to success. Our five concentrations are News/Editorial, Public Relations, Advertising, Photojournalism and Broadcast Journalism.

All sequences require internships, a capstone portfolio that’s been critiqued by practitioners, and other forms of practical experience.

Our department also offers the American Studies program.

Graduate Programs

Students work with our graduate program director to design learning to meet their goals. We offer both an International Journalism master’s degree that requires bilingual fluency for a global internship, as well as a traditional 36-hour research-intensive program that concludes with a major project or thesis.

In-Person MA

Our traditional master’s program is designed to meet the needs of professionals wanting to enhance their skills as well as recent grads interested in pursuing academic career opportunities in higher education.
