Bachelor [Journalism] From Augustana University

Professional journalists and educators agree that the best preparation for a career in journalism is a program of specialized courses taken together with the liberal arts. The Journalism program combines strong offerings in journalistic skills, theories, and participation with a general education curriculum providing broad knowledge required of a reporter, writer, or editor. The skills and knowledge gained as a Journalism major can also be applied to other areas of academic interest, making journalism an ideal secondary major for students working in natural science, government and economics, and fine arts. Graduates of the Journalism program can expect to find careers not only in the fields of writing and editing but also in public relations, law, civil service, and education.
