School of Journalism & Graphic Communication

The School of Journalism & Graphic Communication (SJGC) at Florida A&M University (FAMU) is one of the premier historically Black college and university (HBCU) journalism, visual, and mass communications programs in the country.

Founded in 1982, it is the first program of its kind at an HBCU to receive national accreditation. With a focus on academic excellence, experiential learning, and professional development, SJGC prepares students to be influential storytellers, communicators, and leaders equipped to meet and exceed the demands of a competitive and evolving media marketplace.

At SJGC, students develop highly sought-after skills that enable them to effectively present information, persuade audiences, and produce compelling content. Our scholars learn how to not only develop their voices but also represent the voices of others in our state-of-the-art facilities, as they take part in our award-winning multimedia platforms.

SJGC offers a hands-on learning environment that allows students to hone their skills in real-world settings within the school and the greater community. From student media productions and year-round training to making connections with alumni and supporters, our emerging professionals have the opportunity to learn from and engage with prominent media professionals from high-impact organizations through a range of programs.
