With so many degree options out there, here are some top reasons why you should study Journalism Broadcasting:
Broadcast Journalists interview people from different cultures, careers and interesting backgrounds that enable you to learn something new everyday. It gives you an opportunity to meet people from different walks of life and see things from a different perspective.
If you love travelling, this is the best field for you (besides piloting, of course) because this job involves lots of travelling to both national and international locations to cover news.
Broadcast Journalists are usually those that do not crave to make a six figure salary but are satisfied with reporting true stories and events to millions of audience around the world. It gives them a sense of achievement and accomplishment.
“Journalism is what maintains democracy. It’s the force for progressive social change.”
- Andrew Vachss

While gossip and hearsay may dominate headlines, a journalist has to be, first and foremost, accurate. You’ll need to fact-check and be certain that a story has sources that are credible before publishing it.
Whether it’s talking in front of a camera that’s broadcasting to over 20 states, or just writing a piece that your editor will have to edit, you’ll need to have confidence, both in yourself and the work your produce.
Sometimes you’ll be confined to a laptop or cubicle for hours on end to edit and re-edit certain articles to ensure perfection before it goes into mass production. Sometimes you’ll need to travel to a foreign land, in the rain and muck, and talk to people you’ve never met before. Either way, you’ll need to be comfortable doing it all.
