Program details

Overview

Arts, lettres et communication, option Médias et journalisme (500.AJ), est un DEC préuniversitaire de deux ans au cégep Édouard-Montpetit. Le programme développe un regard critique sur l'actualité, les médias et leur impact social, à travers l'analyse d'articles, de reportages et de documentaires selon des perspectives historiques, sociales et critiques. La pratique occupe une place centrale: les personnes étudiantes réalisent des projets de journalisme écrit et audiovisuel, en apprenant des méthodes de recherche et d'entrevue et en utilisant des équipements tels que caméras et enregistreurs sonores, dans un studio de tournage, une régie télé et un studio de son mis à leur disposition par le cégep. L'option est offerte en collaboration avec l'option Cinéma, avec qui trois cours sont partagés. Elle donne accès aux programmes universitaires sans préalables spécifiques, notamment en communication, en journalisme ou en production médiatique. Ce programme convient à une personne qui souhaite comprendre la médiatisation de l'information et créer des reportages, des documentaires ou des émissions d'information.
