Business Journalism Specialization at Baruch College

The Business Journalism specialization focuses on how to follow economic trends, the financial markets, corporations and their leaders, and neighborhood businesses, all with an eye on the impact these factors have on society. The specialization also helps students develop research and reporting skills, mine data, and communicate news to different audiences.

With permission of the journalism advisor, writing-related Feit seminars (IDC 4050H) and Harman Writer-in-Residence courses may be counted toward the major. Other electives may comprise two additional courses (6 credits) drawn from the offerings of other programs throughout Baruch College, subject to approval by the journalism advisor.
