Overview
Build Your Reporting Skills
The Berkeley J-School offers a two-year Master of Journalism (M.J.) degree program that emphasizes advanced reporting and technical skills for print, broadcast, and online media.
We encourage cross-training. Berkeley students take a broad variety of courses and gain expertise in the media platforms and reporting topics of their choice. Today's job market requires journalists to have an exceptional array of skills and experience.
Exploration and versatility are major features of our curriculum. We consider journalistic integrity and objective reporting to be the foundation for everything we teach.
