The Department of Journalism and Communication provides undergraduate degree options in journalism, science and environmental writing, along with a mass communication minor. Journalism plays a vital role in democratic societies by acting as a government overseer, amplifying marginalized voices, educating and engaging citizens, representing diverse perspectives, safeguarding environmental resources, and preserving collective history. The journalism major equips students with the necessary expertise to assume these responsibilities, focusing on developing research, writing, editing, and analytical capabilities. Students combine digital media skills with ethical reasoning and international awareness, preparing them for diverse career paths. The curriculum includes instruction in writing techniques, editorial processes, visual communication, media law and ethics, professional internships, and examinations of media's societal impact.
