Overview

Sports journalism is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the news media industry, with continued growth on all platforms: multimedia outlets, broadcast and cable channels and networks, radio and podcasting and team, league and conferences websites and social media platforms. The Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication's BA program in Sports Journalism gives students unparalleled preparation for careers in sports media and communications through courses such as sports writing, sports photography, sports strategic communications, broadcast sports reporting, live sports production, play-by-play, and ethics and diversity in sports. During the Sports Journalism degree program, students complete a variety of professional experiences. Internship partners include professional sports teams, Arizona State University athletics; local, regional and national sports media outlets like ESPN, Bally Sports, Fox Sports, the Pac-12 Networks and more. Sports journalism students also participate in the school's sports bureaus in Phoenix or Los Angeles for a semester. Cronkite sports journalism students cover teams and events in the NFL, MLB, NBA, WNBA, NHL, NASCAR, PGA, LPGA and Division I athletics out of these fully operational digital sports newsrooms in Phoenix and Los Angeles, producing content for local and national media outlets.
