Bachelor [Journalism and Media Studies] From University of Nevada

No longer are journalism and media studies fields with niche positions. The landscape has become a convergent environment. The Hank Greenspun School of Journalism and Media Studies offers a diverse class selection and structures each class to promote convergence among fields for more successful graduates.

What does convergence mean? It means that those within broadcast and print journalism, public relations, integrated marketing communications, and media studies professions are being asked to develop skills to perform tasks that were once segregated. For example, a broadcast personality now writes for on air, then writes and posts the story for the station’s website, and then uses social media appropriately to engage with followers and promote the story. With this in mind, the school encourages students to identify how they can use other parts of journalism and media studies to enhance their professional goals.
