Journalism Certificate

The Journalism Certificate is a wide-ranging, cross-disciplinary program designed to equip students with both the core ethical and reporting skills of great journalistic practices—like fact-checking and interviewing—and the modern expertise demanded by new media industries, such as data visualization and multi-modal composition. The curriculum ensures students are versatile across journalistic modes and platforms, gaining hands-on experience in everything from podcasting and longform narrative to understanding media law and the ethics of “fake news” and AI-generated content. The program is structured to provide both practical, skill-focused training and an analytical view of the field, with a requirement of experiential credits in order to secure essential real-world experience for career success.
