The Journalism degree offers preparation for students who wish to be journalists--news reporters, copy editors, feature writers, editorial writers, freelance magazine writers, and online or multi-platform journalists.Journalists provide news, information, and commentary that help citizens make decisions affecting their lives and participation in a democratic society. Because of this responsibility, the press is the only institution mentioned by name and protected in the Constitution. Students can learn to appreciate this responsibility by specializing in newspapers, magazines, and web-based media, plus taking courses in related sequences like photography and visual communication.
