Broadcast Journalism
When you think of broadcast journalism, you may imagine the
famous TV news anchors, like Diane Sawyer or Tom Brokaw. Broadcast journalism,
however, has many different facets, both in front of and behind the camera.
There are local news anchor jobs, traffic and weather reporters, and production
crew. Or you may be drawn to the national spotlight and have a desire to join
one of the major networks or news affiliates to report or produce national and
world news.
Investigate Journalism
Throughout history, investigative journalists have been at
the heart of an honest and high-functioning democracy. In our constantly
changing and evolving society, the importance of the freedom of the press
cannot be underestimated. Whether holding election campaigns accountable by
following the money, or tracking and exposing our biggest environmental
polluters, investigative journalists help to improve the world in which we
live. If you are passionate about equality, fairness, and honesty, then a
career in investigative journalism may be the right fit for you.
Photo journalism
For the past 100+ years, our view of the world in which we
live has, in part, been shaped by photojournalists. Get away from the office
and explore the world with your camera while documenting the events of our
time. More than half of photojournalists are self- employed, giving you the
freedom and flexibility to be at the helm of your career. Traditional
photography classes combined with journalism courses will keep you relevant in
a constantly changing environment.
Sports Journalism
Growing up, many of us dreamed about a career in
professional sports. If we didn’t have the skill to be Michael Jordan or Brett
Favre, maybe we could be Howard Cosell. A career as a sports journalist can
serve in a multitude of media, including writing, broadcasting, producing, or
commentating. Start your career as a sports reporter with an internship, and by
requesting information from schools. Learn about the many types of sports
journalism careers and the training and education necessary.
