FYS 1053 - OMG! – An Orientation to Media Genres

Hours: 4
The far-reaching impact of the modern day media landscape is enough to make someone say “OMG!” This class is an orientation to media genres for first-year students. The class will encourage students to gain a deeper understanding of today’s media platforms as an interconnected global industry. Students will also gain an appreciation for the importance of media professionals to actively pursue public engagement and social responsibility. In addition, students will be given plenty of opportunity to reflect on how media programming provides images, lifestyles, and stories that relate to the identity of the human self and its place in the world.
