The Journalism program equips students with essential research, interviewing, reporting, and writing skills while grounding them in ethical and legal standards for professional journalism. Blending time-honored journalistic practices with modern digital tools, the curriculum prepares students to craft impactful, truthful stories for diverse media formats. Suffolk University's customized approach begins with two core classes emphasizing public speaking, clear writing, and analytical reasoning, followed by specialized instruction in writing, digital journalism, and media legislation. Students then acquire targeted expertise through practical journalism experience.
Those focusing on broadcast journalism receive exceptional training through Suffolk U News, the program's culminating course. Internships form a crucial component, with Suffolk students frequently securing positions at major outlets including New England Cable News, PBS, and network affiliates like NBC, CBS, ABC, along with Fox News and ESPN.
