Graduate Program
The University of Montana's Master's program in Environmental Science and Natural Resource Journalism was created in 2010. The program was announced less than a month after Columbia University, in New York City, suspended their Earth and Environmental Science Journalism dual masters degree program.
Accepting eight students a year that wish to specialize in reporting environmental issues, the Master's program invites applicants with undergraduate degrees in science and environmental studies, along with applicants with degrees or professional experience in journalism. Applications are only accepted for fall semester. The application deadline is February 15.
The two year interdisciplinary program requires course work in both journalism and hard sciences. The program trains graduate students to communicate environmental issues through various platforms such as print and photo stories, multimedia projects, and web and broadcast documentaries.

“Navajo men and boys have an odd way of showing their friendship. When two young men meet at the trading post, a Sing, or a dance they greet each other, inquire about the health of their respective families, then stand silently some ten or fifteen minutes while one feels the others arms, shoulders, and chest.”
