Journalism students focus on the study of writing news for the print media. Students learn how to interview insightfully, write accurately and edit for clarity. Courses cover topics such as photography, journalism, broadcasting and advertising. Associate degrees in Journalism and Broadcasting prepare students to transfer to a four-year college or university. After graduating, career opportunities may be found as a reporter, photographer, author, teacher, news commentator, advertising executive or public relations practitioner. Areas of emphasis are also available in broadcasting, speech and public relations.
