The University of Arizona's journalism department has received accreditation for the next six years, the university has announced.
The Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism and Mass Communications voted unanimously last week to re- accredit the program. The vote was the final step in a six-month process that started with the department submitting a 1,000-page report to the council.
In February, a three-member team spent four days on campus meeting with faculty members, administrators and students. The team recommended approval and lauded the interdisciplinary international journalism program, the department's strong print-journalism emphasis, the student-produced newspapers for area communities and the department's commitment to diversity.
The UA journalism program has been accredited by the council for more than 40 years. There are more than 100 accredited journalism programs in the country.
