Overview

Key facts:

Finding and reporting the truth. It’s a mission. It’s a calling. It’s not for the lazy, weak or superficial. Whether you’re a print, broadcast or online journalist you’ll learn how to gather facts, interview the best sources, and form the story. It may need to be told in print, shown in video or perhaps delivered in multimedia platforms. Whether you’re typing on a computer or getting ink on your fingers, you’re a mouthpiece for your community, and the SOJMC will help you find your voice.
We’re not saying lives revolve around news and information, but with an emphasis in broadcast Multimedia at the Marshall University, yours certainly will. Marshall’s broadcast program gives you the opportunity to put your face in front of the camera, or behind it. In the studio, you’ll report, produce, run the camera and eventually anchor the news desk for a real on-air broadcast on our signature television news program, MU Report.
