We
want our students to be well prepared for their careers or for advanced
study. To enhance their education and success, we have these graduation
requirements:
- A minimum grade
of "C" in all courses in the student's major.
Students must repeat any course in the department in which
they make a "C-" or lower.
- Internship
Internships give students valuable experience, insights
and connections for their careers. So every student must complete at least
one approved internship in his or her major.
- Portfolio
A portfolio of work shows that students have mastered the
basic skills and concepts of their professions. A portfolio would include
material suitable to the student's concentration: published news stories
for print journalism students; a tape of news stories for broadcast journalism
students; a client campaign for public relations and advertising students;
management and business materials for media management students.
And the portfolio comes in handy for students after graduation - it's
often part of a graduate's job application.
