About Us

The New Media Bureau at the University of Cincinnati is an exciting class that offers students the opportunity to partner with local news organizations to create multimedia stories. Through these partnerships, student journalists gain invaluable front-line insights into the local media landscape. The class meets once a week to discuss the stories that have been produced, and students are also encouraged to come up with their own stories to share with their partners. By participating in this unique program, students gain valuable experience and knowledge that will help them succeed in their future careers.

The bureau’s focus on providing hands-on experience to its students gives them the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in a professional newsroom. The bureau offers a select group of top students the opportunity to learn the tools and techniques of modern media, as well as the expectations, deadlines and requirements of a professional newsroom. This hands-on experience gives the students the skills they need to be successful in a career in news.
