Degree Program Upon completion of the University baccalaureate and major requirements in the Department of Journalism and Integrated Media, students earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism and Integrated Media. Senior Portfolio Review All students in the Department of Journalism and Integrated Media are expected to undergo a portfolio review and defense by a Department Portfolio Review Committee before graduating. The portfolio consists of the student’s best work, completed during either coursework or internships during the time they have been enrolled in the major. The student’s portfolio will be rated for competency or non- competency. Competent work can also be rated as exemplary. Students whose portfolio does not earn at least a competency rating must re-submit their portfolio to the Review Committee. Timing of the review is the semester before graduating (typically Fall semester of the senior year in a normal four-year undergraduate cycle). For December graduates, the review would take place during Spring semester. In cases of unavoidable emergency, the Spring review and defense can take place during one of the two academic Summer sessions. Re-submitted Fall semester portfolios will be reviewed during the Interterm or Spring semester. Traditional students should schedule a preliminary portfolio review with their academic advisor at the end of five semesters to plan successful completion of the Senior Portfolio. Transfer students should schedule a preliminary portfolio review after two semesters. Scheduling of the Senior Portfolio review and defense is the responsibility of the student, and must be done with the departmental secretary after collaboration with the student’s academic advisor. Portfolio review and defense will be scheduled once each semester. Practicum and Internships Required media practicum courses, consisting of on-campus media work, provide opportunity for students to build a portfolio that gives
