Earn an Associate Degree in Broadcast Journalism

The Associate in Arts in Broadcast Journalism introduces students to the theory and practice of broadcast media. The program provides critical and cultural analysis of media and communications in conjunction with a hands-on production sequence in reporting, writing and producing news media across radio, TV and social media platforms. Students gain experience creating impactful video and audio packages while building broadcast production skills as staff members at campus media.  

Completion of the degree prepares students to move into a four-year program leading to a baccalaureate degree and potential careers in digital media, broadcast journalism, social media reporting, editing, public relations, advertising, writing and production, teaching, and communications research. Please consult a SAC counselor for information about course requirements for particular four-year institutions.
