Trends in journalism education and in the profession have steadily changed over the last 10 years. One of the big changes is the increasing number of women who are pursuing degrees in mass media or communications. Their enrollment numbers have increased at both the undergraduate and graduate levels compared to male students. In this episode of Update-1, Dr. Tudor Vlad, the director of the James M. Cox Jr. Center for International Mass Communication Training and Research at the University of Georgia, discusses gender trends at colleges and universities and in the journalism profession with Broadcast/Podcast team member Sarah Dolezal.
Dr. Vlad also highlights the challenges in reopening college campuses amid the coronavirus outbreak. Adjusting to online learning while balancing career aspirations is tricky for students studying mass media and communications, and remains a hot topic for staff, faculty, and industry experts.
