About Bachelor of Communication and Digital Journalism

The Bachelor of Communication and Digital Journalism is a four-year-long program. It provides students entering today's digital media landscape with the benefits of two exciting and relevant fields as they embrace studies in public and strategic communication, media relations, media and technology, multimedia storytelling, digital journalism, visual communication, and digital design.

 

This degree prepares students to interpret and critique a shifting media landscape and navigate various diverse and flexible opportunities as digital journalists, public relations specialists, media analysts or content producers.
