The area of study encourages students, faculty, citizens and members of allied
professions to generate and participate in discussions intended to raise awareness
and understanding of the existing and potential impact of online journalism. This is
accomplished through regular undergraduate and graduate courses, independent
studies, lectures, and presentations by internal and external new media experts and
professionals.
The convergence of new media and journalism impacts both the lives of individuals
and the careers of allied professionals. Where possible, this area of study strives to
identify and promote internal and external sources of funding, or otherwise support
new media inquiries for pro-social, innovative applications of new media,
particularly in relation to the practice of journalism.
This program does not anticipate that our faculty or students will design, engineer
or develop new hardware or software intended for new media applications. Rather,
we focus on utilizing existing hardware and software to create or further develop
innovative new media applications.
