Journalism Major in Pepperdine University

Journalism students join a dynamic field of storytellers across all media. This program is grounded in the fundamentals of accurate and ethical fact-gathering and reporting while anticipating emerging technological opportunities.

Classes prepare students with the technical and creative skills to tell truthful and meaningful stories across platforms and engage with audiences at multiple levels. Our students take classes that immerse them into on the ground reporting and the ethics and law surrounding the creation and distribution of content. Journalism students also complete an outside concentration, which requires three upper-division courses in an area outside of journalism to build and diversify the knowledge and expertise expected of journalists.

Hands-on student media experience from the first day they step onto campus. Pepperdine Graphic Media (digital news, newspaper, magazine) and NewsWaves (live television and streaming news) involve students in real-world journalism. From writing stories to operating cameras, designing a magazine and reporting live from the scene of news events, student journalists learn in real-world conditions with the guidance of seasoned faculty with strong professional and academic backgrounds.

Internships give students professional media experience off campus to help them transition to their careers. Students can choose from internship sites at major media outlets in nearby Los Angeles or other major metropolitan areas around the world.
