Students will experience actual “on-deadline” news filing, be expected to adapt their story for multiple media deliveries and to back up their stories with photography, audio or video. Much of the course work is “in field,” and as such, students must be strong self-starters and motivated to seek out, interview and write stories on a frequent basis. Successful applicants will have a very strong interest in news and current affairs. They must have above average writing skills and the ability to meet deadlines while working under pressure. Program Highlights: Two media work placements. The MediaPlex is the only one of its kind in Canada and is equipped with state-of-the-art technology. “Convergence” journalism is taught exclusively at this campus, providing students with employable skills for the newsrooms of the 21st century. Students learn how to work across all media platforms including digital/on-line, print, television and radio. The curriculum will provide students with cutting edge knowledge and skills making them highly marketable across all media platforms. Journalism students get to run the MediaPlex Website bringing them breaking news and current affairs from Windsor, across Canada and around the world, as it affects people in the communities.
