| Visual Journalism Focus
The journalism department offers a focus on visual journalism for students interested in photography and design. This focus can be completed within the news-editorial and ad/PR emphases by completing the media photography I and II, and graphic arts of the print media courses. In this emphasis students learn about classic photography principles as well as cutting edge technology. As the press moves into the new century students will focus their skills on digital technology and development. This focus will allow students to diversify their skills and portfolios and become even more valuable to potential employers.
