This degree is designed for students with a limited range of experience in journalism. Courses are offered in differing online environments. The entire program can be completed in one calendar year with students starting classes in the Augmester, then continuing in the fall and spring semesters, and finishing their professional project over the summer. The Master of Arts in Journalism Entrepreneurship also offers flexibility in that its online courses can be taken at a student’s own pace over a longer time period. The entire program is 30 credits.Students will come to Boulder in early August for a one-week in residency media bootcamp, which will include another two weeks of class work completed remotely. This 3-credit course begins the program. Students will then take up to 12 credits in the fall and another 12 in the spring semesters. These courses are a mixture of traditional 15-week classes and five-week terms; each is 3 credits.Regardless of schedule, the degree’s focus is on multimedia journalism and business training.  Students develop skills in information gathering, storytelling and analysis across a variety of platforms and professional contexts, including video, online interactivity, social media, photography—and, of course, the printed word. They will also take conceptual courses concerning the journalism industry and the business of journalism.
