多媒体新闻序列使学生为在新的媒体融合环境中工作做好准备，即竞争，放松管制和数字技术打破了印刷，广播，电视和互联网之间的障碍。要求学生发展强大的基本写作和分析技能，然后熟练掌握同时为多种媒体平台进行写作和制作的能力，并展现出在迅速发展和增长的媒体市场中取得成功所必需的多功能性。多媒体新闻序列的目的是提供广泛的文科教育并发展专业技能，使毕业生能够充分行使新闻工作者的公民责任，以促进民主机构的活跃运转。此外，学生将选择另一门学科的重点，这将有助于他们在当今的全球，技术和基于信息的社会中发挥信息提供者的重要作用。
The Multimedia Journalism Sequence prepares students to work in the new media convergence environment - where competition, deregulation, and digital technology break down the barriers among print, radio, television, and the Internet. Students are expected to develop strong basic writing and analytical skills and then to become adept at writing and producing for multiple media platforms simultaneously, exhibiting the versatility necessary to succeed in a quickly evolving and growing media market. The goals of the Multimedia Journalism Sequence are to provide a broad liberal arts education as well as develop professional skills so that graduates are able to fully exercise the civic responsibilities of journalists for the lively functioning of democratic institutions. In addition, students will choose an emphasis in another discipline that will help them fulfill the important role of information provider in today's global, technological, and information-based society.
