To graduate, students must complete a “capstone” project - a professional-level piece of work - in any media format they choose. A broadcast piece will be at least a nine-minute segment prepared to air on CUNY TV. For the print format, it will be a publishable article of at least 3,000 words. An interactive project will be a major web site package that is multimedia and interactive or a new media product developed by the student. Print and new media capstone projects will also be posted on the NYCity News Service web site operated by the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism.
These projects are archived by the library and the content or citations are made available to the public in agreement with the student.
