Course Description
Students will work in a newsroom environment using their journalistic knowledge and skills in the production of daily stories for multiple platforms, including TV broadcasting, online, mobile, and social media news delivery. They will write, shoot, and edit under daily deadline pressure.
Additional Requirements for Graduate Students:
Evaluation of graduate students differs significantly from
that of undergraduate students. Not only will graduate
students be assigned more readings and additional projects,
they will also be graded with higher expectations than
undergraduate students. Specifically, graduate students will
be assigned an additional research or applied project
depending upon the discretion of the instructor. Research
projects may involve secondary research reviews and synthesis,
whereas primary research studies will involve collection and
analysis of data. Applied projects will consist of an original
professional-level project delivered as a written report
and/or oral presentation.
