Data not yet available<\/p>\n<p>Note: A number of students who entered the program in any given year may still be in the pipeline and making progress toward graduation. The completion percentages for five years for six or more years may increase as the remaining students in a cohort matriculate.<\/p>\n<h2>Job Placement<\/h2>\n<p>Job placement is assessed through an annual survey of graduates immediately following matriculation conducted by the university Assessment Office, and through a periodic survey of graduates conducted by the School of Journalism and Mass Communications. On average, about one quarter of the school\u2019s graduates continue employment in a job they originally had as an intern while the remainder go on to other employment in the field, employment in other areas or continue their academic careers. Generally, about 30% of journalism and mass communications majors continue in master\u2019s programs. In the most recent survey of alumni 75% reported full-time employment directly in the field or in a closely related field and 20% reported full-time employment in an unrelated field.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ACEJMC Accreditation \u00a0 When students choose to pursue a career in journalism or mass communications, they have many potential universities to consider.
