Program Overview

Ask any journalist to define journalism today and most get tongue tied.

  • Is a blog journalism?
  • Is the media as biased as so many say?
  • Is business killing journalism?
  • What has happened to journalistic ethics?

The Semester in Washington Journalism Program puts all these issues on the table as you journey through the maze of media in the nation’s capitol, seeing first hand how the news is shaped, journalism’s interactions with the nation’s politics and how the journalism business is changing.

Program Highlights:

  • Take specially designed seminar through the George Washington University’s internationally renowned School of Media and Public Affairs.
  • Go behind the scenes where and when the news happens.

Whether you are ready with a resume tape, heading for public relations or just curious about the news, your semester in Washington will change the way you view the media and give your career a head start.
