Program Overview

The science and environmental journalism program equips students with a unique skill set increasingly valued in the nation's newsrooms and other communication entities. There has never been a greater need for smart, courageous journalists with a passion for the public interest and the ability to tell stories about science, technology, health and environmental issues. Though the program focuses on science and environmental journalism, the skills learned pursuing this degree apply to a wide variety of fields both in media and in public communication.

In addition to the solid academic foundation delivered in the classroom, students receive practical experience working in media on and off campus. Students complete their required professional media internships at various radio and television stations, newspapers, public information offices and other media-related businesses and organizations in and outside Alaska.

The department runs several laboratory facilities, including a digital newsroom and photography lab, dedicated audio and video bays, an advanced video editing/digital printing lab and a photography studio.
