As the final requirement for the master's degree in journalism, each candidate must satisfactorily complete a well-researched, edited and documented 5,000-word publishable or broadcast-worthy piece on a significant pubic affairs and/or journalism topic. This course, a combination of seminar and individual coaching, will help you achieve that goal within a semester. The seminar is designed to help guide you through the process by offering a structure for choosing a viable topic, developing a proposal and roadmap for research and setting benchmarks so you can finish the project, publish it and earn your master's degree. (Publishing is not required, but polishing the 20-page final version through several drafts is.)
