Laurea in Giornalismo

The Missouri School of Journalism is where storytellers of all kinds can find their voices by using them first. This hands-on philosophy of learning-by-doing was deemed “the Missouri Method.” Today, the Missouri Method allows students to gain hands-on, career-ready experience in six professional newsrooms – including a National Broadcasting Company (NBC) affiliate, an National Public Radio (NPR) member station, a digital-first community newspaper – and two advertising agencies with paid local, state, and national clients.

Wherever you want to go, a journalism degree can get you there. For more than a century, our School has combined the time-honored tenets of journalism with the industry’s latest technology and news-delivery methods. Missouri journalism students gain hands-on experience in professional newsrooms. They learn how to tell stories that answer the six fundamental journalism questions: who, what, when, where, why, and how. Students will gain the skills needed to engage, entertain, and inspire audiences across platforms and interests. And the best part? Our philosophy of learning-by-doing will take you far beyond the walls of a classroom. Report breaking news via social media. Produce the next game-changing documentary. Or cover an SEC bowl game for an NBC affiliate. Your story is waiting to be written. How you tell it is up to you!

We educate preeminent journalists, strategic communication professionals, and scholars using our world-renowned Missouri Method to seek and communicate truth to benefit a democratic society, setting the standard for quality journalism and strategic communication worldwide.

We will shape the next generations of our professions with the Missouri Method and world-class research, scholarship, and innovation to prepare journalists and strategic communication professionals for exemplary public service and leadership.
