Journalism and New Media

Department Affiliation: Film, Media & Communication

Media is no longer limited to the traditional forms of newspapers, television, and radio: The internet and new technology have taken journalism to a whole new level.

The Journalism and New Media program at Mount Saint Mary's University gives our students a solid foundation in writing and critical skills, along with a thorough education in broadcast, film, web and mobile platforms.

We give students the opportunity to become informed and credible new voices in society, ready to have a profound, meaningful influence upon the world. From news writing and investigative journalism to sports reporting, documentary-making and photojournalism, students in the Journalism and New Media program learn the skills to identify and give a voice to the world's most important issues.

Students will work within a multi-disciplinary environment with Journalism, Film and Media teams who are committed to producing eloquent and creative writers with a passion for telling a good story. With access to our facility in Hollywood, students can add production and digital storytelling to their portfolio of audio, video and writing skills, to produce journalism across a range of media.
