The Philip Merrill College of Journalism is your launchpad to the future as a broadcast journalist. Merrill College leads the way not only by upholding the highest ideals of journalism, but by embracing the latest tools. Our Merrill journalists are fearless and entrepreneurial – they learn by doing in the best media markets out there – producing newscasts, researching and reporting longer form investigative reports, covering political conventions, coding websites, embracing social media and mobile journalism. Specialty courses are offered in public affairs reporting, sports reporting, science, health and business reporting, and war coverage.
Broadcast journalism students study and learn at our college-operated cable television station, UMTV. The broadcast program is led by Emmy award-winning Professor Mark Feldstein, a former on-air investigative correspondent at CNN and ABC News who is the college’s Richard Eaton Chair in Broadcast Journalism.
Students begin their broadcast education from their first semester at the Merrill College, volunteering as crew members for programs produced under the guidance of renowned broadcast faculty members, including award-winning broadcast journalist Sue Kopen-Katcef – who oversees the CNS Broadcast Bureau.
In addition to hands-on volunteer experience, students are given the opportunity to supplement required journalism courses with broadcast electives instructing them on producing television and radio news shows and documentary programs.
