Where will you go with your M.S. in Journalism?
“The best parts about BU’s graduate journalism program were the connections I made both with other students and with my professors. Now, those other students are colleagues, and my professors are my friends and mentors. They have helped me get jobs, and prepped me for a life in journalism. I would not be where I am today in my career without BU’s skills-based and rigorous but effective programs.”
