Whether using a camera, a microphone, a smartphone or a laptop, students become journalists by doing journalism inside and outside the classroom.Gaining critical skills that equip them for storytelling in all its forms, journalism students practice their craft in Kent State’s award-winning student media. Working with these outlets, students learn how to engage audiences where they ''live,'' on TV, radio, online, social media and in print.Journalism students produce news and feature content on visual, digital and emerging platforms, and they apply what they’ve learned as part of the required professional internship.
