Bachelor of Arts in Journalism

The journalism major is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills needed to become socially responsible digital journalists who produce in-depth journalism stories based upon authentic, reliable sources and data. In short, they learn to do Journalism that Matters. Students learn to gather, synthesize and present news and information using a variety of digital story techniques and platforms. Courses provide hands-on opportunities to develop strong writing, reporting and editing skills as well as an understanding of evidence based data gathering and analysis using appropriate research methodologies. Grounded in the liberal arts, journalism majors also gain familiarity with the law, history and the ethics of the profession. As majors gain experience it is expected that they would advance to leadership/mentor positions in Student Media, obtain internships, work for the Milwaukee Neighborhood News Service (NNS), and/or obtain an elite position working with an O’Brien Fellow in Public Service Journalism.

Learn how to mine databases, analyze and interpret data, access public records, and research complex issues and events. Gain practical, real life experience, in contacting authentic, reliable sources and data. Interview thought leaders as well as citizens in the community. Work and get paid for it at The Marquette Tribune, our award-winning, twice-weekly student-run newspaper. Even as a freshman journalism major, you'll work on important stories, interview city administrators, review movies and shows, write editorials, and cover Marquette and professional athletics.
