The digital age has transformed how we exchange information. With a supplemental endorsement in Journalism and Media, you’ll be able to train the next generation how to harness media for mass communication. Wayne State College offers extensive coursework in electronic and digital media. The former boundaries between print and electronic media have converged, and newspapers, radio, and television stations now provide multiplatform content via their websites and smartphone apps. You’ll learn journalistic writing and layout, video performance and production, voice training, and social media/marketing communications, along with the theoretical framework necessary for the future lesson plans.
