Make a Difference
Journalism at Emory emphasizes writing, reporting and critical thinking. The skills of newspaper and electronic journalism go hand-in-hand with study in the liberal arts and sciences. The result is journalists who make a difference!
Journalism co-majors or minors learn the craft of researching, interviewing, reporting and writing news. They develop an understanding of press issues and build a technical foundation. Students advance and refine that know-how in professional internships.
Journalism at Emory is a special selection program. Every semester students can apply for admission to the Program.
