Overview
The Bachelor of Communication and Digital Journalism is a four-year-long program. It provides students entering today's digital media landscape with the benefits of two exciting and relevant fields as they embrace studies in public and strategic communication, media relations, media and technology, multimedia storytelling, digital journalism, visual communication, and digital design.
This degree prepares students to interpret and critique a shifting media landscape and navigate various diverse and flexible opportunities as digital journalists, public relations specialists, media analysts or content producers. It also offers students the option to participate in co-op if desired.
This program offers three major options:
• The Major in Digital Journalism prepares students to be strong and ethical storytellers accountable to the public by producing multimedia stories in a digital environment.
• The Major in Public Relations prepares students to use strategic communication skills across various professional contexts, including media relations, stakeholder engagement and marketing.
• The Major in Digital Media Studies prepares students to be critics and interpreters of the digital cultures and technologies that mediate the world in which they live, work and play.
