Mizzou Journalism

This is the official YouTube channel for the Missouri School of Journalism.

In 1908, Walter Williams founded a school–the world’s first to offer a journalism degree and still the most renowned to this day. The “J-School,” as it is often called, awarded the world’s first undergraduate degree in journalism (1909), master’s degree in journalism (1921) and doctorate degree in journalism (1934).

Located at the heart of University of Missouri’s beautiful 1,262-acre campus, the J-School is where storytellers of all kinds can find their voices by using them first. This hands-on philosophy of learn-by-doing was deemed “the Missouri Method.” Today, the Missouri Method allows students to gain hands-on, career-ready experience in six professional newsrooms–including an NBC affiliate, an NPR-member station, a digital-first community newspaper–and two advertising agencies with paying national clients.
