What Journalism Schools Teach

What the contemporary journalism school curriculum looks like and whether it prepares journalists

The Curriculum

The contemporary journalism school curriculum -- the combination of the writing and reporting skills that traditional journalism education has always taught, the digital production skills that the current media environment requires, the data journalism components that the analytics era has added, and the specific ethics and accountability components that the journalism profession standards require -- has in 2025 the specific composition that the ACEJMC accreditation standards and the specific journalism faculty expertise of the accredited programmes have produced.

The Gap

The gap between what journalism schools teach and what the journalism market requires: the specific skills that the journalism employers who hire recent graduates identify as most deficient -- the audience analytics, the specific platform optimisation skills, and the business model literacy that the journalism sustainability requires -- are the skills that the journalism school curriculum has been slowest to incorporate because they are the skills whose journalism school teaching the journalism faculty with traditional reporting backgrounds are least equipped to provide.
