Since 1917, when the School began awarding the bachelor’s degree, more than 7,500 students have been awarded the B.A. in journalism. The school has awarded nearly 1,000 M.A. degrees since 1930, and almost 200 Ph.D. degrees since 1939.

Our graduates prepared to be leaders in the fields of professional journalism, strategic communication, and mass communication. Our alumni include luminaries in many fields, including newspapers, magazines, television, advertising, public relations, and higher education.
