Journalism and Media Production students may communicate to large, broad-based audiences through news publications, public relations firms and blog sites. Our programs combine writing and visuals to produce traditional video programs, interactive media, mobile and social media, and technical documents in print and online formats.
Career possibilities are diverse, but usually involve some form of technology. Whether creating a message for a mobile device, a website, an online training program, or a streaming video, audience identification is paramount. Knowledge and skills learned in JMP-based classes allow technical communicators to work in many industries: corporate, government, education, broadcast, and nonprofit.

"In May 2020, the median annual wage for media and communication workers (such as announcers, interpreters and translators, and technical writers) was $61,310 and $50,870 for media and communication equipment workers (such as broadcast and sound engineering technicians, film and video editors, and photographers), both of which were higher than the median annual wage for all occupations in the economy." - U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
"Employment is projected to grow 14 percent from 2020 to 2030, faster than the average for all occupations, and will result in about 151,500 new jobs. Demand will arise from the need to communicate information through a variety of different platforms." - U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
