This program leads to a Bachelor of Arts in Indigenous Journalism and Communication Arts, a four-year, 120-credit-hour degree at First Nations University of Canada, alongside a two-year after-degree option, a diploma, and a one-year certificate along the same pathway. The curriculum combines hands-on writing and media production training with coursework in Indigenous media ethics, media history, business communications, and multimedia storytelling across print, online, radio, and video, and the four-year degree also includes Indigenous language study. Learning is experiential, using the program's dedicated media labs, which provide newsroom facilities and studios along with mentorship from working media professionals. The program is offered at the Regina campus only. It suits students seeking careers in journalism and media, preparing graduates for roles such as journalist, public relations specialist, news director, or broadcast editor with Indigenous governments, nonprofits, and media outlets.
