Ethics and Media

(4 Credits)

Students planning to pursue careers in media will be faced with choices that carry ethical repercussions. The purpose of this course is twofold: 1) to equip future media professionals with a sensitivity to ethics and skills in critical thinking and decision making so that they can navigate their roles and responsibilities; and 2) to give students the opportunity to hone these sensitivities and skills as consumers of media and citizens in a media saturated society.
