Overview
We have taken the best features of Journalism at Western – a tradition of great storytelling and ethical journalism – and added more. In addition to being able to work as journalists, grads will be qualified for employment in a wide array of communications-related fields. And they will have the social media, content creation and media production skills they will need to thrive as media continue to evolve.
The Master of Media and Journalism and Communication program is offered by the University of Western Ontario.
Students interested in working with not-for-profit organizations, NGOs, and other activist groups will be particularly interested in the program.
