Sustained Excellence
The power of storytelling: The School of Media and Journalism, one of five schools in ¹ú²úÂ×Àí’s College of Communication and Information, helps students discover the power of storytelling – the news story, the feature story, the multimedia story, the client’s story and the short film. And in the process, we help students discover their own brand stories: who they are, what unique skills they offer and what they want to do with their professional lives.
