Overview

In the Journalism program from the University of Oregon, you’ll learn how to tell stories that can inform the public, influence legislation, and inspire change—skills in high demand at media outlets, nonprofits, and businesses across today’s competitive economy.

How in demand? Graduates from our recent cohort have already landed internships or jobs at NPR, High Country News, Oregon Public Broadcasting, Newsday, and the East Oregonian.

Key Features

Public understanding of science- and tech-related matters determines the laws we pass, the behaviors we adopt, and the causes we champion.

But research shows that scientists and citizens often see the same issues through different lenses, especially when it comes to polarizing issues. Journalists can be change agents, spurring public understanding and action. Work with program advisors and the SOJC’s Center for Science Communication Research (SCR) to get specialized training in science and tech communication.

Accreditation

The University of Oregon is a member of the exclusiveAssociation of American Universities(AAU).

The Lundquist College of Business and the Accounting department are both accredited by theAssociation to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business(AACSB).
