Goldring Arts Journalism

Overview

Curriculum

The 36-credit Master's Degree in Arts Journalism is completed in one calendar year in residence at Syracuse University. The program begins in Syracuse in early July with the summer term known as the Newhouse Boot Camp experience.

Students take four core arts journalism classes. In addition, during the fall and spring, they attend elective courses in journalism, multi-media skills, and the arts. Students have the option of a magazine or newspaper internship in Central New York, Manhattan, or Boston.

During the winter break, the arts journalists participate in a cultural immersion trip to New York City, which includes attendance at theater and music performances, film screenings, museum and gallery tours, architectural site visits, symposia, lectures, encounters with artists and administrators at major arts institutions, and sessions with New York arts editors and writers. The Goldring program concludes with a capstone workshop during May and June.
