This 18-hour photojournalism minor, comprised of courses already part of the journalism curriculum taught by tenured faculty, lays a foundation for using the camera to document the world around them and then leads Âé¶¹´«Ã½ through advanced classes and finally to a semester-long project. Besides digital and still photography, Âé¶¹´«Ã½ will be introduced to basic video and will be able to edit and post this content to the web.
Photojournalism skills and principles can be transferred to a variety of occupations as well as to a student's own life story. With the skills Âé¶¹´«Ã½ learn and practice in the photojournalism minor, Âé¶¹´«Ã½ will be able to help with publication and digital communication for business and work environments or with feature photography that chronicles their world.
This minor would be a nice complement to several majors such as public relations, art, and business, as well as attractive to Âé¶¹´«Ã½ who enjoy photography as a hobby or entrepreneurial endeavor.
Completion time: 18 Credit Hours
