As a broadcast journalism student, you’ll study the media, writing, reporting and editing as you “cross-train” to become an effective broadcast, print or online communicator.
In the Schieffer School, you can work for student media outlets that have been named among the best nationally and regionally.
TCU News Now was recently named the best college news show in the country; the TCU Daily Skiff is an all-American newspaper; Image magazine was named the best student magazine in the region and was a finalist for the best in the nation.
