WELCOME TO MJW!

Since its inception in 1984, the Multicultural Journalism Workshop (MJW) at The University of Alabama has provided experiential learning opportunities for high school students from across the country who are interested in pursuing journalism and student media in college.

Students who take part in the 10-day MJW program stay on-campus in UA dorms and develop their skills in reporting, writing, editing, design and photography through field trips to historical sites across Tuscaloosa and other areas of the Black Belt region; lectures and demonstrations from practitioners currently working in the fields of journalism and media; and production of multimedia content on real deadlines.

Sound like a good time? We think so, too! For information on how to become a part of next cohort, please visit the How to Apply menu for requirements and submission details.
