The B.A. in Journalism requires students to complete a core dedicated to the craft of journalism, critical inquiry and application. Students are then asked to select additional elective credits to enhance their areas of expertise within the major and expand on how they may apply journalism in the future. These skills are further honed through an application in a professional media setting.
