General Information

Working under faculty direction, students in the department edit and publish the Daily Universe as a laboratory newspaper for the campus, produce daily radio and television newscasts on KBYU-FM and KBYU-TV, produce @BYU.Newsline for the Internet, plan advertising and public relations campaigns, solve media sales and management problems, and create multimedia presentations.

The Department of Communications sponsors the International Media Studies Program, which seeks to broaden students' awareness of worldwide communications issues and practices. Not only do students have opportunity to study the media systems of other nations through classes and on-site experiences, but media practitioners of other nations are also brought to campus as lecturers and visiting experts. International Media Studies is directed by John Hughes, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and former publisher of the Christian Science Monitor.

Departmental Requirements

  1. Each student must be formally accepted into a degree program. Contact the college advisement center for admission requirements.
  2. All students, including those who have received high school advanced-placement credit with a score of 2 or less, must take a campus writing class before applying for admission to the major. The following writing classes fill this requirement: Engl 115, College Writing and Reading; Phil 105, Reasoning and Writing; or HonP 200, Intensive Writing. (All these courses can fill the GE First-Year Writing requirement.)
  3. The student's faculty advisor must approve his or her supporting-area program.
  4. Complete 90 hours outside the department, of which at least 65 hours must be in the liberal arts and sciences.
  5. Except for communication studies students, every student is required to serve an internship. Although the department operates an internship office (F-340 HFAC) that serves as a clearinghouse for internship information, the responsibility for securing an internship rests with the student. However, students should not embark on any internship without prior approval from a faculty advisor, before processing appropriate documents with the Communications Department (E-509 HFAC), and without being enrolled in Comms 199R.

BA Communications: Broadcast Journalism Emphasis (58-60 hours*)


The Discipline

The study of journalism entails the mastery of working with people to present news and features in a way that reflects events accurately and fully. You will acquire skills in analytical thinking, lucid writing, and interviewing to be able to present a clear and forceful picture of your subject in words. To have a broad background, students are encouraged to earn more than 70 percent of their credits in other departments. You will develop a wide understanding of the world and the processes that make society work. In addition, you will become familiar with methods of writing that effectively reach mass audiences—that portray events and people in satisfying ways. Since a wide range of knowledge is essential within the field, you will study libel law, ways of writing for magazines, the process of communication, and such areas as the interaction between the mass media and society today.

Career Opportunities

In the exciting field of journalism, traditionally there has been the allure of working in a profession that has its finger on the changing pulse of society. Whether serving as reporters on television, radio, cable, on-line, daily newspapers, the community press, or in the growing magazine field, journalists find themselves rubbing shoulders with important people and recording important events.

A career in journalism implies not only skill with words, but the ability to make sound judgments and to ferret out facts. In recent times a growing demand has arisen for those with writing specializations, such as medicine or science. In addition to the obvious careers as reporters and editors, students often find their journalism skills in demand in a variety of other areas.

Many find the challenge of recording the drama of real life both satisfying and enlightening. Because of television, journalism has changed in recent years, but even though there has been a decline in the number of daily newspapers, an explosion of special interest magazines and on-line publishing has opened up innumerable jobs for writers and editors. These changes call for greater skill in writing to be able to present the world in an interesting way. Overall, one of journalism's great satisfactions has been the sense that one can make a difference in the world and bring about changes for the better.

BA Communications: Marketing Communications Emphasis (61-72 hours*)


The Discipline

Communications majors who choose the marketing communications emphasis (formerly known as the advertising sequence) will participate in a program that will give a strong grounding in the liberal arts and sciences, provide a firm grasp of communications theory and principles, and teach practical workplace skills.

In marketing communications courses students will learn how to use research in studying diverse audiences, to analyze communications problems, and to evaluate communications programs. They will write problem-solving strategies and create oral and written advertising messages to specific target audiences. Students will also learn how to evaluate and select the most effective media for reaching those target audiences and gain an understanding of how broadcast, print, and other media are used in the marketing process.

Studies will culminate in the student's participation, as a team member, in creating and presenting a comprehensive and competitive integrated marketing communications campaign that includes research, advertising, and sales promotion.
