Hofstra's journalism program is among the finest in the country, training and educating students for careers in print, broadcast and Internet journalism, media analysis, and public relations. Students receive a solid foundation in news reporting, media ethics, history and law. Our courses are taught by a Pulitzer Prize- and Emmy Award-winning faculty with an average of 20 years of experience in the field. Top professionals from every field of journalism regularly join the faculty as lecturers and adjunct professors, sharing their cutting-edge expertise. With close proximity to the communications capital of the world, New York City, our students often find valuable internships with media heavyweights such as CBS, The New York Times, The Daily News, Condé Nast, and Time Warner.
