Master of Journalism

Add article description


A Master of Journalism (abbreviated M.J., M.S.J., M.M.J.C., M.A. in Journalism, or M.S. in Journalism) is a master's degree awarded to students who have studied journalism at a graduate level. Like other master's degree programs, master of journalism programs are typically between one and two years.

While some Master of Journalism programs are focused on the academic study of journalism, most are geared towards providing students with journalism skills. Students are usually required to take courses on writing and reporting as well as media law and ethics. Many programs have an internship or co-op component in which students will complete a placement at a working newsroom, magazine office, or other media production outlet. Some programs allow students to specialize in a particular type of journalism, such as broadcast journalism, newspapers, magazines, or online journalism.[citation needed]
