BA/BS in Journalism

Taylor University in Upland, Indiana offers journalism through its Communication Department as a multimedia major. Students practice reporting and storytelling across written, visual and audio formats, so a graduate can move comfortably between a newsroom desk, a camera and a design layout. Each student completes a supervised internship in journalism or media writing, guided by an industry professional. Coursework covers investigative reporting, web and magazine writing, nonfiction storytelling, scriptwriting, plus technical and business writing, all shaped by a Christian view of ethics. Hands-on experience comes through the campus newspaper and the yearbook, where majors can earn academic credit. Seniors assemble a professional portfolio and present it at a senior show. Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science tracks are available, including a Systems option.
