Starting next academic year, newly enrolled journalism students will have the opportunity to follow the program refreshed with new content.
Today, in the already advanced era of information capitalism and a networked hyper-consumer society, the profession of journalism is experiencing a thorough redefinition of its social role and practices, and with it, educational models intended for new generations of journalists are also being transformed.
How can we design a journalism education program in the age of universal connectivity, digital social networks, influencer culture, and media dominance by persuasion industries? What should a modern journalist's "survival kit" look like in the age of "image civilization," media convergence, and the complete democratization of the production of informative and pseudo-informative content? Are we truly living in a "post-journalistic" era, or does this calling, despite everything, still have an authentic social meaning?
VERN's "upgraded" undergraduate study program in Journalism will attempt to offer a constructive response to some of these dilemmas starting this fall. Starting next academic year, newly enrolled students in the Journalism study program will have the opportunity to follow a program refreshed with new content, which will focus on broadcast journalism and modern communication platforms.
What will the refreshed concept of this study offer? What will students learn?
