The journalism and strategic communications fields are more diverse, more experiential and more exciting than ever. Our students don’t just read about communications technologies; they learn to use them in ways that will attract attention from future employers. Our lab facilities are state-of-the-art, and our instructors are seasoned industry professionals who bring years of experience into the classroom. 

This means that our students cover and produce news for distribution across multiple media platforms, develop strategic campaigns for actual clients, and learn cutting-edge applications in everything from mobile media to drone technology.

Professional options

 A difference between the A.Q. Miller School and other programs in the state and across the nation is that our students can gain professional experience starting their first day on campus. Events such as our JMC Professionals Day and our “How I Landed My Job” lecture series connect students with professionals in the industry and allow them to practice interview and resume-writing skills.
